Weaver, J.
(concurring). While I concur in the majority opinion, I write separately to emphasize that the injuries in these cases occurred before 1982. Injuries occurring after March 31, 1982, are subject to coordination under § 354 of the Workers’ Disability Compensation Act, MCL 418.354; MSA 17.237(354).
As the Supreme Court stated in Stanley v Henchliffe, 395 Mich 645, 657; 238 NW2d 13 (1976): "Double recovery is repugnant to the very principles of workmen’s compensation.”
Doctoroff, C.J., concurred.
