RH v United Bristol Healthcare NHS Trust
De Haas v South West London Strategic Health Authority

Court of Appeal

“Where a court made a periodical payments order for a claimant in proceedings involving catastrophic injury in the context of future care, of which the main element was the wages of the carers, the annual earnings survey published for care assistants and home carers was the more appropriate and usable index than the retail price index.”
