Similar to section 58, section 71 (1) provides Comcare with the power to request information and/or documents from employers in relation to a claim. That request must be complied with within a reasonable time frame, as specified in the letter of request.
Section 71 (2) states that the employer has no option but to provide the information being requested.
Again, as with section 58, section 71 should only be used when all other avenues of obtaining information from the employer, like using general letters of request and personal contact, have been tried.
