Respondent lawfully exercised its discretion: appellant possessed transferable pre-injury skills making retraining unnecessary under the Clause 55 hierarchy; the proposed four-year degree was not likely cost-effective under Clause 56 and exceeded the statutory three-year funding ceiling; no error of law or miscarriage of justice was shown, therefore the decline to fund the course was upheld.
