31  Validating pre‑commencement decisions in relation to treatment path
(1) This item applies in relation to a thing done before the commencement of this Schedule in relation to the provision of treatment, or compensation for treatment, to a person under Chapter 6 of the MRCA to the extent that the doing of the thing would, apart from this item, be invalid or ineffective because the person was not entitled to the treatment, or the compensation, under that Act.
(2) The thing done is as valid and effective, and is taken always to have been as valid and effective, as it would have been had the person been entitled to the treatment, or the compensation, under the MRCA as amended by this Schedule.
(3) However, this item does not affect rights or liabilities arising between parties to proceedings heard and finally determined by a court on or before the commencement of this Schedule, to the extent that those rights or liabilities arose from, or were affected by, a thing done as described in subitem (1).
