Summary:
Umpire stated that the only way that long term disability income protection plan (DIPP) payment can be excluded from earnings is if they fall within either Reg. 35(7)(a) of the UI Act, i.e. they are disability pension payments "for life", or Reg. 35(7)(b) they are payments under sickness or disability wage-loss indemnity plan that is not a group plan. The payments are not wage-loss indemnity payments made under a plan that is not a group plan and under Clause 22-1001(g) of the DIPP no payment is for life.
