The Licence Appeal Tribunal ("LAT") acted quickly and efficiently to correct an error that was contained in the decision of 16-000179 - Raho Mohamud v. Old Republic Insurance Company that was released by the tribunal earlier this month. This matter, which proceeded by way of a written hearing, dealt with entitlement to pre-104 week IRBs.

In the underlying decision, the LAT determined that the insurer's determination to discontinue the Applicant's entitlement to pre-104 week IRBs was incorrect. However, not only were the applicant's benefits ordered to be reinstated, it was also ordered that the applicant was entitled to receive these benefits to the future defined date of May 21, 2017 (the two year anniversary of the underlying accident).
