WORKERS' COMPENSATION AND INJURY MANAGEMENT ACT 1981 - SECT 217A

217A .         Arbitrator may reconsider decision if new information

        (1)         In this section —

        new information means information relevant to a decision that, although available to a party at the time the decision was made, was not available to the arbitrator and, in the opinion of the arbitrator, justifies reconsideration of the matter.

        (2)         If new information becomes available after an arbitrator makes a decision, the arbitrator may reconsider the decision and —

            (a)         vary or revoke the decision previously made; or

            (b)         make any further decision,

                as the arbitrator considers appropriate having regard to the new information.
