The deceased was killed in a motor vehicle accident.
The insurer paid a $10,000 death benefit to her mother, but refused to make an additional payment to her father, arguing the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule provided for a single payment.
The arbitrator ordered the insurer to pay an additional $10,000 to the father.
On appeal, the Director's Delegate confirmed the arbitrator's decision, holding that each person in respect of whom the insured was a dependant is entitled to a separate $10,000 payment.
