Walters v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2003] NZACC 48
- Court
- District Court
The C3 certificate received in June 1987 contained sufficient information for the Corporation to calculate the appellant's weekly compensation under the alternatives available in s52(2) of the 1982 Act; therefore the Corporation had 'all information necessary' from that date and interest under the saved s72 is payable. Interest accrues at the prescribed rate but, due to s458 of the 1998 Act, interest runs only from 1 July 1992.
