## When to use it

Use when a motor accidents merit review in the Personal Injury Commission requires the approved schedule of earnings. The applying-online page says the parties must attach it to all merit review applications.

## Used for these tasks

- [Work out weekly compensation from earnings, capacity and time on payments](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/work-out-weekly-compensation-from-earnings-capacity-and-time-on-payments.md)
- [Prepare a CTP or workers compensation dispute submission from the scheme file](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/prepare-a-ctp-or-workers-compensation-dispute-submission-from-the-scheme.md)
- [Prepare a damages or statutory-entitlements schedule](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/prepare-a-damages-or-statutory-entitlements-schedule.md)
- [Comply with PIC13 when preparing PIC documents](https://ailawframework.com/practice/personal-injury-and-compensation/comply-with-pic13-when-preparing-pic-documents.md)

## How AI may be used

The tool may generate a working schedule of earnings from wage records on the file, because PIC13 paragraph 11 permits that, and the lawyer checks every figure before it is attached.

**AI may:**

- Build a working schedule of pre-accident weekly earnings, deductible amounts and amounts able to be earned from payslips and payment summaries already on the file
- Split the rows into the first 13 weeks, weeks 14 to 78, and the period after week 78
- List dependants named in documents already on the file, with date of birth and relationship

**AI must not:**

- Must not invent a figure that is not in a record on the file
- Must not write a statement of the injured person's evidence into the schedule
- Must not sign the schedule or lodge it
- Must not treat the schedule as a statutory declaration

**The lawyer checks:**

- Every dollar figure is checked against the source record before the schedule is attached
- Part 1 is the weekly benefits in dispute. Part 2 is dependants. Part 3 follows sections 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8 of the Motor Accident Injuries Act 2017 as the form labels those columns
- The filing party or representative signs the form. The PDF is marked v0.1. The filename on the Commission site includes Aug23. The PDF text does not print a month
- The privacy notice on the form refers to section 58 of the Personal Injury Commission Act 2020 and to disclosure to SIRA
- PIC13 paragraph 11(a) permits generation of a schedule of earnings, subject to paragraph 10 on material that must stay inside a controlled platform
- Health, wage and other personal information stays in a firm-controlled tool. Check confidentiality under ASCR r 9 and APP 11, and whether any breach is notifiable under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
