98 Provision of information about personal injury plan
(1) The insurer must give both the employer and the injured worker
information about the personal injury plan.
Note This section does not apply if the injured worker is a participant in the
LTCS scheme (see s 96A (1)).
(2) The information must include a statement to the effect that the
worker’s entitlement to weekly compensation may stop if the worker
unreasonably fails to comply with the requirements of this chapter
after being asked to do so by the insurer.
(3) The insurer must keep the employer informed of significant steps
taken, or proposed to be taken, under the personal injury plan for the
worker, unless the employer is a licensed self-insurer.
