A claim form under the Safety, Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 1988 (Cth) that identifies a specific injury on a specific date, even where it refers to repetitive work as the cause, will be construed as a claim for that specific injury and not as a 'nature and conditions' claim. The Tribunal has no jurisdiction to consider a nature and conditions claim where no such claim has been made under s 54, determined under s 60, reviewed under s 62, or applied for under s 64. It remains open to a claimant to lodge a separate nature and conditions claim.
