- [1995] NZACC 135
- Court
- District Court
Section 147 mandates a written election by 31 March 1993 and, as construed in Webster (22/94), neither the respondent nor the court has discretion to accept a late election; failure to comply requires deeming or denial under the statutory scheme, so the appeal must be dismissed.
