- Court
- District Court
The appeal was dismissed because the Court lacked jurisdiction to determine claims that had not been the subject of a primary ACC decision; further, the 1992 Act and its transport regulations applied to the trips and claims made prior to 1 July 1999 by virtue of the 1998 Act transitional provision s427(2), and ACC was directed to reconsider the appellant's amended claim and issue a primary decision accordingly.
