Note to div 3.13.2

The Division title="SL2002-20">Workers Compensation Regulation 2002

, div 6.2 deals with conciliation. A conciliation of a matter in issue arising from a worker's claim for compensation (other than rejection of the claim by an insurer) must be held before arbitration of the matter (see s 38). The Division title="SL2002-20">Workers Compensation Regulation 2002

, pt 7 provides for a committee rather than the court to arbitrate matters in certain cases (see esp s 51).
