Burgess v Accident Compensation Corporation
- Citation
- [2000] NZACC 176
- Court
- District Court
The 1998 Act and its Schedule 1 (s426(3)) do not have the necessary clear retrospective effect to create an entitlement to reimbursement for treatment provided in 1988; consequently the respondent had no statutory authority to pay or reimburse the appellant's 1988 psychiatric fees.
