That's a good question. Holistically, the new Veterans Charter provides three types of payment. The first, as you say, is the lump sum award payment, which is strictly for pain and suffering. It has nothing to do with replacing income or anything like that. It's strictly for pain and suffering.
Unfortunately, that has been misinterpreted in the past. People looked at that and thought maybe it was to replace income. The only challenge with that particular payment is that you have to be careful, because when it's given to people who have mental injuries and illness, they might have some difficulty managing that lump sum payment.
After that, the other payments are two vocational rehabilitation programs. There's an earnings loss payment—which is now 90%, up from 75%—but over and above that, once vocational rehabilitation is done, there is what you could call a pension for life. It's really a payment for life under the CIA, which is actually for the most seriously injured people. It gives a monthly payment for the rest of your life.
These are the three cash or income replacement and pain and suffering payments that are available, and they're much more generous than in some of the other countries you've talked about.
