90. Where, by reason of the injury sustained, the victim is in a physical or mental condition that requires the continual attendance of another person or renders him unable to care for himself or perform, unaided, the essential activities of everyday life, he is entitled to be reimbursed for expenses incurred for personal home assistance.

Expenses are reimbursed, on presentation of vouchers and according to the terms and conditions determined by regulation of the Government, up to the amount determined in the regulation. Such amount may not, however, exceed $555 per week.

In the cases determined by regulation of the Government, the Minister may replace the reimbursement of personal assistance expenses by an equivalent weekly allowance.
