PIC News No. 93

Keep up to date with the latest news edition issued by the Personal Injury Commission

This week, I had the pleasure of presenting my annual address to the University of NSW Law School. It’s a privilege I look forward to each year that provides an opportunity to share some of the key matters relevant to practice in the Personal Injury Commission. Please take the time to have a read. The section on artificial intelligence, in particular, is important content for all tribunal users.

While on the subject of AI, the Commission was recently asked to clarify how the new AI rules which commenced on 1 January apply to expert reports prepared prior to 1 January 2026. Please find more information below.

Also in this edition, practitioners are reminded of the following:

  • the purpose of the 500-page limit under rule 67
  • the requirements of objections to notices for production in motor accidents matters
  • the principles to be included in wholly or mostly at fault motor accidents disputes.

Finally, I am delighted to share some information about Judge Ralph Perdriau, the first Judge of the NSW Workers Compensation Commission. His story and that of many others will feature in the workers compensation centenary publication to be released later this year.

Regards,

Judge Gerard Phillips
President
