CTP Changes: Adding Insult to Injury

Wed Sep 21 2016

The Bar Association and the Law Society of NSW have launched a state wide campaign highlighting the key benefits that will be lost under the NSW Government’s proposed changes to CTP Green Slip Insurance. CTP Changes: Adding Insult to Injury aims to increase public understanding of the key benefits currently covered by their CTP Green Slip insurance.

President of the NSW Bar Association, Mr Noel Hutley SC said that under the current proposals, for example, loss of earnings would be restricted to 5 years and capped at 1.5 time Average Weekly earnings.

"This is particularly harsh for those who are injured but who have a long working life ahead of them. It also singles out those who rely on their physical fitness to earn a living – such as tradespeople," Mr Hultey said.
