RM v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1999] NZACC 295
- Court
- District Court
Because a duly authorised assessor applied the AMA Guides and produced a whole person impairment assessment of 6%, which is below the statutory 10% threshold required for payment, the appellant is not entitled to an independence allowance and the Court cannot override those statutory requirements.
