In this episode, we consider the decision of the Victorian Court of Appeal in Roman Catholic Trusts Corporation for the Diocese of Sale v WCB [2020] VSCA 328, a case which considered the proper approach and principles to apply in exercising discretion under recently-introduced legislative provisions to set aside prior settlement agreements entered into for historical child abuse claims - there, a settlement agreement pursuant to which WCB previously resolved his damages claim in 1996, for sexual abuse at the hands of a priest which occurred from 1977-1980, for the modest sum of $32,500.
