Personal Injuries Assessment Board Bill 2003

Public bill · Government · Presented

The Personal Injuries Assessment Board Bill 2003 would establish a body to assess compensation for accepted, undisputed personal-injury claims without court proceedings, initially for workplace injuries and later for other accidents. Its faster, document-based process would aim to reduce legal costs, while allowing either side to reject an assessment and take the case to court.

Formal long title

Bill entitled an Act to enable, in certain situations, the making of assessments, without the need for legal proceedings to be brought in that behalf, of compensation for personal injuries (or both such injuries and property damage), in those situations to prohibit, in the interests of the common good, the bringing of legal proceedings unless any of the parties concerned decides not to accept the particular assessment or certain other circumstances apply, to provide for the enforcement of such an assessment, for those purposes to establish a body to be known as the Personal Injuries Assessment Board and to define its functions and to provide for related matters
