Section 7(5)(a) requires the first occasion of treatment specifically for the personal injury as such; earlier GP consultations for bronchitis and a gym-entry spirometry did not amount to treatment for industrial asthma, so the first treatment date was 28 September 1994 and the respondent's and Review Officer's decisions were correct.
