Clauses 115 to 120, by leave, taken together and agreed to.

Clause 121.

MR BARR (Kurrajong—Chief Minister, Treasurer, Minister for Social Inclusion and Equality, Minister for Tourism and Special Events and Minister for Trade, Industry and Investment) (4.16): I move amendment No 7 circulated in my name [see schedule 2 at page 1644]. This amendment is intended to ensure parity between the suspension of payments for treatment and care and income replacement. The provisions in relation to the suspension of treatment and care payments for an injured person that fails to attend an assessment were contained in the draft MAI guidelines. It is recognised that these should be contained in the bill, and that is why this amendment is before us today.

MR COE (Yerrabi—Leader of the Opposition) (4.17): We will be supporting this, but I would like to note that we do think that two weeks, as stipulated, may be a little short.

MS LE COUTEUR (Murrumbidgee) (4.17): The Greens will also support the amendment.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause 121, as amended, agreed to.

Clause 122 agreed to.

Clause 123.
