The Workplace Injury Rehabilitation and Compensation Act (the WIRC Act) recasts the Accident Compensation Act 1985 ( the ACA Act) and the Accident Compensation (WorkCover Insurance) Act 1983 (ACWI Act) into a single Act that is simpler and easier to use.
This link gives you a table that indicates where the provisions of the Accident Compensation Act 1985 can be found in the Workplace Injury Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2013 that became operational on 1 July 2014.
Of particular significance is section 91 (6) in the ACA Act that has been replaced with Section 64 (a) and (b) with regard to psychiatric impairment assessment.
