The committee may render its opinion on the basis of the record if it considers that examining the worker is not necessary and the worker agrees or if the worker has died.
The committee shall make a report in writing to the Commission on its diagnosis within twenty days of the examination and, where its diagnosis is positive, it shall also include in its report its findings relating to the worker’s functional limitations, percentage of physical impairment, and tolerance for a contaminant within the meaning of, as the case may be, the study of the record or the Act respecting occupational health and safety (chapter S-2.1) that caused his disease or that is likely to expose him to a recurrence, relapse or aggravation.
