Brown v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2009] NZACC 190
- Court
- District Court
ACC proceeded to a vocational independence assessment and determined vocational independence while an agreed and material element of the IRP (basic computer training) remained uncompleted; this breached s112(3) because the Corporation was still liable to provide that rehabilitation and the omission was material to the appellant's ability to obtain suitable sedentary employment; accordingly the review decision was quashed and the vocational independence determination set aside.
