Bridge Freight Ltd v Accident Compensation Corporation

Citation

[2000] NZACC 324
Court

District Court

The ECHN was a non‑reviewable notification and therefore not a decision capable of review; the appellant had accepted that the injury was a work injury so there was no dispute on that point; any review remedy lies against the Experience Rating Assessment which was not before the Reviewer; accordingly the appeal is dismissed.

D T King & Co Ltd v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation

Citation

[1998] NZACC 237
Court

District Court

An Employer Claims History Notification is merely a notification of the respondent's records and not an assessment or decision capable of review; similarly the respondent's 12 February 1998 letter did not constitute a reviewable decision, therefore the review officer's decision confirming attribution could not be challenged on that basis and the appeal is dismissed.
