150: District Court Rules and this Act apply to appeal

You could also call this:

"Rules for appealing decisions in court"

When you want to appeal a decision under section 149, you need to follow certain rules. These rules come from two places: the District Court Rules and the Accident Compensation Act. The District Court Rules are made under section 228 of the District Court Act 2016. However, the Accident Compensation Act and any regulations made under it might change some of these rules. This means that when you're appealing, you need to pay attention to both sets of rules to make sure you're doing everything correctly.
