This Order prescribes 0.5% as the rate of return which, under section A1(1) of the Damages Act 1996 (c. 48), courts are required to take into account when calculating damages for future pecuniary loss in an action for personal injury. As this is the second review of the rate of return since the commencement of Schedule A1 to the Damages Act 1996, the procedure set out in paragraph 3 of Schedule A1 to that Act applies.
