NRS-9498 | General index [Accident Compensation Inquiry]

The terms of reference for the Accident Compensation Inquiry were established by the Attorney General, the Honourable F. J. Walker, Q.C., MP on 12 November 1981. Its purpose was to inquire into, report on and make recommendations concerning the extent to which compensation should be payable in respect of death or personal injury. The Inquiry was to consider: (1) whether 'no-fault compensation' should be payable in respect of death or personal injury suffered by any person through the use of a motor vehicle or other means of transport. (2) whether 'no-fault compensation' should be payable in respect of death or injury suffered by any person in circumstances other than the use of a motor vehicle or other means of transport. (3) whether a 'no-fault compensation' scheme or schemes should be introduced in New South Wales and, if so, to consider further the nature and scope of any such scheme. (4) whether any 'no-fault compensation' scheme should be in substitution for all or any rights to compensation under existing law. (5) whether the principles and practices relating to compensation for death or personal injury under workers' compensation legislation, other legislation, the tort or common law system should be modified and, if so, in what way.This is an index to correspondence received by the Commission and other papers regarding the Inquiry. It is divided into two sections - "Accident Compensation" which indexes the series NRS 9495General correspondence files1981-1984 [12/12823-37] and "Accident Compensation Reference" which indexes the series NRS 9496Public correspondence files 1981-1985[12/12819], NRS 9497 Internal correspondence files,1981-1984 [12/12812], NRS 9500 Submissions 1981-1984 [12/12803] and NRS 9501 Case studies 1982-1984 [12/12807-11]. Following these two sections are three other indices - "Community Law Reform", "Criminal Procedure", and "General" - which appear to relate to filing systems other than the Accident Compensation Inquiry filing system.

本数据集对应的事故赔偿调查职权范围，由新南威尔士州律政部长、尊敬的F·J·沃克（御用大律师、议员）于1981年11月12日正式确立。本次调查的宗旨为：就死亡或人身伤害相关赔偿的支付范围开展调查、出具专项报告并提出针对性建议。调查需重点考量以下五项内容：1. 针对个人因使用机动车或其他交通工具遭受死亡或人身伤害的情形，是否应当支付无过错赔偿（no-fault compensation）；2. 针对个人在非机动车或其他交通工具使用场景下遭受死亡或人身伤害的情形，是否应当支付无过错赔偿；3. 新南威尔士州是否应当引入一项或多项无过错赔偿计划，若需引入，则进一步研判该类计划的性质与适用范围；4. 某项无过错赔偿计划是否应当取代现行法律下的全部或部分赔偿权利；5. 针对《工人赔偿法》、其他专项立法、侵权法或普通法体系下的死亡及人身伤害赔偿相关原则与实践，是否应当予以修订，若需修订，则明确具体修订方向。本数据集为该调查相关的委员会往来函件及其他关联文件的索引。其整体分为两大章节：其一为"事故赔偿"，对应编号为NRS 9495的1981-1984年通用往来函件档案组[12/12823-37]；其二为"事故赔偿参考"，涵盖以下多组档案：NRS 9496（1981-1985年公共往来函件档案组[12/12819]）、NRS 9497（1981-1984年内部往来函件档案组[12/12812]）、NRS 9500（1981-1984年意见书档案组[12/12803]）及NRS 9501（1982-1984年案例研究档案组[12/12807-11]）。在上述两大章节之后，另有三个附属索引章节："社区法律改革"、"刑事诉讼程序"与"综合"，其归档体系大概率与本次事故赔偿调查无关。本索引对应1捆档案（编号12/12839.2）。注：本数据集描述基于2000年第三版《新南威尔士州州立档案馆简明指南》。
