Insurer and motoring body RACQ held a citizens’ jury in Brisbane over the weekend, as part of its efforts to push for reforms to Queensland’s current compulsory third party (CTP) scheme.

Part of RACQ’s ReThink CTP campaign, the citizens’ jury consists of more than 40 Queenslanders who would hear from expert witnesses and provide input to guide the motoring body’s ongoing advocacy activities relating to the scheme.

“We’ve launched ReThink CTP, not as an insurance company, but as Queensland’s largest club, and as a member organisation that collectively represents the voices of road users around the state,” said RACQ’s Paul Turner. “With your help, we want to look at the current CTP scheme, compare it to other schemes around the country, and see how it stacks up.”

RACQ said it is still looking for plaintiff lawyers to provide jury members expert insights and opinions for and against the need to reform the CTP scheme.

RACQ has also launched a survey to learn what Queensland motorists think are the strengths and weaknesses of the current scheme. The survey will be open until March 03, with results to be presented to the jury. To participate in the survey, visit the ReThink CTP website.
