Splite v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2014] NZACC 124
- Court
- District Court
The District Court held that the legal question whether ACC's requirement that a claimant undergo a vocational independence assessment constitutes a 'decision' under s6 and is reviewable under s134 is a question of law capable of bona fide argument and granted leave to appeal to the High Court to determine that question; the Court did not resolve the substantive issue but found the matter sufficiently arguable given the statutory definition of 'decision' and McGrath guidance.
