- Court
- District Court
The Court concluded Dr Fenwicke's report was flawed, allowed the appeal, quashed the review decision dated 14 December 2012 and set aside the Corporation's decision dated 30 October 2012, and directed that the Corporation arrange a reassessment by a different assessor chosen by the appellant with the Corporation to issue a fresh decision based on that reassessment (with review rights); the Corporation will not recover amounts paid if the new assessment is less than 15% WPI.
