Checklist
- Personal Injuries Proceedings Act 2002 section 9(2)(b): the notice of claim authorises the person and, if insured, that person's insurer to access records specified under a regulation. The regulation was not opened. Do not list records it might name.
- Motor Accident Insurance Act 1994 section 37(1)(b) authorises the insurer to access records specified under a regulation. That regulation was not opened either.
- Workers' Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003 section 275(7) is the claimant's authority for information relevant to the claim. The tool lists an authority only where the lawyer says the client will be asked to sign one. It does not prepare the damages notice.
- Medicare compensation recovery may arise later. This list does not complete a notice of judgment or settlement. Treatment and wage records stay in a firm-controlled tool.
