The appellant did not unreasonably fail to comply with the rehabilitation plan: her decision to take lighter employment was supported by her treating doctor's advice and the respondent failed to engage in renegotiation of the plan; accordingly the respondent's and review officer's decisions to cease payments under s.73 are revoked and compensation is reinstated from 20 June 1997 with make-up pay for the specified period.
