To the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly.
The petitioners of New South Wales bring to the attention of the House concerns regarding the drastic increase to Workers' Compensation Insurance (iCare) and the pending impact on small businesses already challenged after COVID and current market positions.
The undersigned petitioners therefore ask the Legislative Assembly to begin investigations with SIRA and Insurance for NSW to quell current spiralling costs and legislate for more affordable insurance to prevent the loss of jobs in market through collapsing businesses and/or sizeable increases to consumer prices during a cost of living crisis.
