Green v Accident Compensation Corporation

- Court
- District Court
The appeal was dismissed because the appellant failed to produce the requisite expert evidence to establish both significant injurious exposure and causal linkage to his injuries; the Court properly preferred the Toxicology Panel's multidisciplinary opinion that exposure was minimal and serum levels were not at disease-causing thresholds, and the statutory evidential threshold for cover under the Act was therefore not met.
