The Committee notes with interest the enactment of the Workers’ Compensation Amendment Act 2011, whereby the Worker’s compensation is increased to two-thirds of the weekly earnings which the worker was earning at the time of the accident. Please specify whether the payment of the increased amount of compensation in the form of a lump sum under the Workers’ Compensation Act 1965 is subject, in practice, to any form of supervision by the competent authority.
