Accident Compensation Corporation v S
- Citation
- [2013] NZACC 97
- Court
- District Court
The Court held ACC's primary decision of 28 January 2010 was a correct exercise of its discretion under Clause 14 because it provided appropriately tailored and flexible night-care options based on the assessor's findings and did not force household members to be permanently on call; the Reviewer erred by reinstating a fixed 56 hours/week sleepover payment without regard to actual night-time needs and family circumstances.
