This means injured people can get their Victorian care allowances without having their Commonwealth pension or benefit reduced or cancelled.\n\nIn short: it stops people from being financially penalised for receiving injury-related care support from the Victorian TAC."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/family-and-community-services-victorian-transport-accident-commission-attendant-care-service-and-pos","history":"/api/acts/family-and-community-services-victorian-transport-accident-commission-attendant-care-service-and-pos/history","analysis":"/api/acts/family-and-community-services-victorian-transport-accident-commission-attendant-care-service-and-pos/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/family-and-community-services-victorian-transport-accident-commission-attendant-care-service-and-pos/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/family-and-community-services-victorian-transport-accident-commission-attendant-care-service-and-pos/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/family-and-community-services-victorian-transport-accident-commission-attendant-care-service-and-pos/documents"}}
