	Disability Pension Program - Veterans Affairs Canada
		The pensionable assessment, which is determined by multiplying the entitlement (1/5 to 5/5) by the assessment (1% to 100%), determines the rate of pension payable, e.g.
		Pensioners who are amputees, wear special appliances, require specially-made clothing or who suffer from a pensionable disability which causes them to soil their clothing excessively, may receive an additional monthly allowance to purchase special clothing.
		If a pensioner was receiving a pension paid between the 5% and 47% rate, the survivor is entitled to a proportionate survivor's pension (which is equal to one-half the disability pension in payment at the time of the pensioner's death).

	OCRT - The Canada Pension Plan Disability Benefit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		If individuals were in receipt of a disability benefit and it ceases, they may re-qualify if they have made contributions in every year including the year in which the disability benefit ceased (until they satisfy the general contributory requirements, currently four out of six).
		Disability pensions are paid until age 65 (when they are converted automatically to a retirement pension), until recovery from the disability or death.
		But few disability recipients opt for this provision because the disability benefit is greater than the comparable early retirement benefit for other workers and is not actuarially reduced at age 65 when converted to a full retirement pension.

	Economic Survey of Finland 2006: Restrict early retirement to make pension reform a success (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The proportion of the population who are inactive and on disability benefits is among the highest in the OECD with nearly half of all new retirees retiring on a disability pension.
		Eligibility for a disability pension should be evaluated entirely on medical grounds, and should be assessed in the first instance by an independent physician rather than one of the applicant’s choosing.
		The large and growing proportion of those retiring on a disability pension for reasons of mental health raises wider issues of wellbeing as the number of deaths attributed to mental health conditions (including suicide) is proportionately much higher than in any other OECD country.

		An eligible person with a disability is a person who has a current disability certificate, issued by Health Services Australia Ltd (HSA), certifying that the person has lost the use of one or more limbs to such an extent that the person is unable to use public transport.
