Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

These Regulations set the start date (linked to section 33 of the Act) and remove claims under the Motor Accidents (Compensation) Act 1979 from the Personal Injuries (Liabilities and Damages) Act 2003, except for Part 4, Division 6 (rr 2–3). They therefore narrow which personal‑injury matters the new Act governs. Claimants and insurers in the motor‑accident scheme remain governed by that existing Act; insurers or other liable payors keep payment responsibility and motor‑accident decision‑makers retain authority (r 3).
