Where a claimant's current inability to obtain remunerated employment is caused by the injury and the proposed private operation would enable the claimant to undertake remunerated employment, the regulations permit approval of private hospital treatment even if the claimant is not currently in remunerated employment or lacks an immediate job prospect; respondent's refusal was unlawful and must be set aside.
