Impairment Assessment Guidelines

In reply to Mr SZAKACS (Cheltenham) (28 July 2021). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer): I have been advised the following:

I intend to make all submissions received in the initial consultation conducted by ReturnToWorkSA publicly available, subject to the consent of the authors of the submissions. I also intend to make the submission from the Minister's Advisory Committee publicly available.

ReturnToWorkSA is in the process of contacting consultees to obtain their consent or otherwise to this intention.

I am also advised that ReturnToWorkSA is contacting the external medical experts that informed the original set of proposed changes to seek their permission to publish their advice on the ReturnToWorkSA website. At the time of preparing this advice, the majority had given their consent.

With respect to recommendations made by ReturnToWorkSA to me, I advise that ReturnToWorkSA provided recommendations for proposed changes to be consulted on. The original consultation documents provided to consultees identify the substantive changes ReturnToWorkSA were interested in pursuing, subject to consultee feedback and, ultimately, my approval.

Not all changes recommended by ReturnToWorkSA were ultimately approved and my ministerial statement on 24 August 2021 in the Legislative Council identified the key recommendations which I did not approve as well as the substantive clauses that were incorporated in the new guidelines.
