The Accident Compensation Act expressly ties earner classification and the measurement of earnings for weekly compensation to Income Tax treatment and PAYE reporting under the Income Tax Act, so tax status governs ACC entitlement calculations; any challenge to tax treatment must be pursued with Inland Revenue and the issue did not present a question of law warranting leave to appeal.
