Accident Compensation (Recent Migrants and Returning New Zealanders) Amendment Bill

Member's Bill
Published date: 12 May 2023

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

This Bill amends the Accident Compensation Act 2001 to allow continuing ACC weekly compensation for a small group of migrants and returning New Zealanders who are not entitled to superannuation, until such time as they meet eligibility for superannuation.
