- [1995] NZACC 126
- Court
- District Court
The court held that 'date of first entitlement' means the date the appellant would have become entitled to weekly compensation had she made the election (27 September 1992); because the amendment to s.52 came into effect 1 July 1993 the appellant is entitled to receive both weekly compensation and national superannuation only for the period 1 July 1993 to 26 September 1993 and the review officer's decision upholding the respondent's position was correct.
