The government says work on reviving the RABS Bill is nearing completion, even as critics warn the reforms could worsen the RAF’s financial crisis.

The government says work on reviving the RABS Bill is nearing completion, even as critics warn the reforms could worsen the RAF’s financial crisis.

Unless the Road Accident Benefit Scheme Bill is retrospective, it may fail to ease the Fund’s financial burden for more than a decade, warn MPs.

The RABS Bill promises faster, no-fault compensation but has previously been criticised for limiting victim rights and excluding vulnerable groups.

It says the RAF board and executives should be held personally responsible for the expenses incurred in the ‘irresponsible’ court action against the Auditor-General.
