Maximum extent of disability


56.4 (1) If a member’s or a veteran’s extent of disability, in respect of the aggregate of all of the member’s or veteran’s disability assessments and deemed disability assessments under this Act — in relation to the disability award or pain and suffering compensation — and under the Pension Act, exceeds 100%, no pain and suffering compensation is to be paid for any percentage points exceeding 100%.

Compensable fraction


(2) For the purpose of determining the extent of disability, if a disability award or pain and suffering compensation was paid or may be paid only in respect of a fraction of a disability, or if only a fraction of a disability is pensionable under the Pension Act, then only that fraction of the disability shall be taken into account.
