H v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2011] NZACC 36
- Court
- District Court
The Accident Compensation Act 2001 requires ACC prior agreement to fund treatment (Schedule 1 cl 4); no prior agreement or engagement existed for counselling provided by Mr Mason from 2003–2008 and the earlier 1999 arrangement was superseded and then cancelled, so there is no statutory entitlement to retrospective payment.
