91. Compensation for bodily injury is not payable in the case of death of the worker.
Notwithstanding the first paragraph, if the worker dies of a cause unrelated to his employment injury and if, on the date of his death it was possible to determine medically the sequelae of his injury, the Commission shall estimate the amount of compensation that it would probably have awarded and pay one-third of that amount to the spouse of the worker and the remaining two-thirds in equal shares to the children who are considered to be dependants.
In the absence of either, the Commission shall pay the amount of the compensation to the spouse or to the children who are considered to be dependants, as the case may be.
