TO: The Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly
Reason for this Petition

To the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory.
This petition of certain residents of the Australian Capital Territory draws to the attention of the Assembly that the proposed enactment of legislation by the Motor Accidents Injuries Bill 2019 will:
Remove, or significantly restrict the rights to compensation, of ACT residents who are injured in a motor vehicle accident in the Australian Capital Territory;
Result in Insurance Companies who provide 3rd Party Insurance to motorists in the Australian Capital Territory receiving super profits.
Your petitioners therefore request the Assembly to vote against the Motor Accidents Injuries Bill 2019, so as to retain the existing rights to compensation of ACT residents.
