KJ v Accident Compensation Corporation (Effect of Review Decision)
- Citation
- [2019] NZACC 65
- Court
- District Court
The Court held that the Support Needs Assessment of 18 October 2011 by Ms Tague and the ACC decisions based on it were not fundamentally flawed; the assessor reasonably reallocated oversight supervision into increased direct attendant care given the appellant's living arrangements and autonomy, and the resulting increase to 33.15 hours/week attendant care and 5.5 hours/week home help was justified. The appeals were therefore dismissed.
