Accident Compensation Act 2001

Transitional provisions relating to entitlements provided by Corporation (but not under Part 10) - Accredited employers

394: Accredited employers under Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Act 1992

You could also call this:

"Old agreements for work injuries before 1999 still count"

If you were an employer who had an agreement with the Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) under a law from 1992, some parts of that agreement might still be important. These parts are about work injuries that happened before 1 July 1999. Even though the old law isn't used anymore, a section from a 1998 law says that these parts of your agreement with ACC are still valid. This means that the rights and responsibilities you and ACC agreed to for those old work injuries are still in effect.
