- High Court
The High Court found the Authority's factual finding that the 27 February 2012 letter did not state that people in paid employment could receive NZ Super was incorrect in light of the produced letter; that factual error amounted to an error of law requiring the Authority's decision to be quashed; the case stated was amended, the new question answered in the affirmative, and the matter remitted to the Authority for reconsideration in light of the correct evidence.
