Penman v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1996] NZACC 56
- Court
- District Court
Because section 135(1) brings the appellant's pre-1 July 1992 accepted claim within the 1992 Act, section 88(2) requires any overseas treatment payments to be authorized by regulations made under the 1992 Act; the applicable 1993 regulations do not authorize payment for the appellant's proposed treatment, so the respondent is not required to pay and the review officer's decision stands.
