Just to clarify...

The rate IS going to be changed. They've confirmed this before due process is carried out.

Okay, well it's because they're going to be looking at 'low risk' instead of 'very low risk'. That may be a reasonable proposition, although strange they didn't think of making this change earlier?

But hang on, the rate was left untouched for a number of years whilst benefitting insurance companies. So now that it benefits injured people, why go immediately to another review with a view to legislating the recent change away?

You mean that insurance lobbyists have the ear of the government and are influencing policy to suit their own ends?

Well, I suppose they have to do something with this year's bumper profits to make sure the same happens again next year!
