Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003

This section applies if—

new information about a medical matter, other than information in a relevant document, comes to the tribunal’s knowledge when a worker attends before the tribunal; or

the tribunal receives a report resulting from an examination of a worker by a registered person nominated by the tribunal under section 510(1)(b).

The tribunal is not required to give the information or report to an insurer or the worker’s employer or to anyone else for any purpose, either before or after the tribunal makes its decision.
