Northern Regional Health Authority v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1998] NZACC 9
- Court
- District Court
Because the Regional Health Authorities are statutory bodies established to carry out and administer Government health policy, purchase and monitor publicly funded health services and are answerable to Crown objectives, their industrial activity is most accurately described by the government/statutory catch-all classifications adopted by the Corporation (statutory bodies/Central Government Operation/Administration) and not as insurance or business administrative services; therefore the Corporation's reclassifications were correct and must be upheld.
