37AA  Interpretation—references to liability to pay compensation under this Part
  A reference in sections 39 to 40 to an employer's liability to pay compensation under this Part, or to the full amount of an employer's liability to pay compensation under this Part, does not include a reference to the employer's liability to pay:
 (a) compensation because of:
 (i) subparagraph 30(4)(a)(i); or
 (ii) subparagraph 30(4)(a)(ii), except to the extent that a period referred to in that subparagraph exceeds 2 weeks; or
 (b) in relation to each claim for compensation under this Part made against the employer (other than compensation to which paragraph (a) of this section applies)—an amount equal to the amount (if any) prescribed by the rules for the purposes of this paragraph.
Note: Paragraph 30(4)(a) applies where an employee is suffering from total incapacity, and requires payment of compensation to the employee in relation to an initial period when the employee is absent from duty.
