The Court held ACC only had 'all information necessary' to determine cover and calculate weekly compensation when it received Dr Foley's second report of 2 April 2014, which was the pivotal medical evidence relied upon by the appellate decision; accordingly interest under s114 is payable from that date and the Corporation's denial of interest and the review decision were quashed.

The Court upheld the Corporation's arrears calculation and reimbursement method under s252 (no double taxation), found the District Court lacked jurisdiction to revisit entitlement prior to 6 August 2004 due to issue estoppel, and held interest under s114 was correctly awarded from 4 October 2006 (date of Dr Walls' report) to 24 May 2010, so both appeals are dismissed.

ACC made full payment of arrears within one month of receiving the necessary information about earnings; information about earnings is 'necessary' under s114 to calculate arrears; the Kearney decision is distinguishable because the cessation here was made lawfully on available assessments (relying on Ramsay) and therefore no entitlement to interest arose.
