Workplace Relations Minister Tony Burke has reiterated that the federal government wants the entire Closing Loopholes Bill to be passed by the end of 2023. This follows a push by Senate crossbenchers to remove four provisions from the bill and legislate them by the end of the year. They include proposed changes that would make it easier for first responders such as firefighters and ambulance crews to claim workers’ compensation for job-related post-traumatic stress disorder. Independent senator David Pocock says this would allow more time to consider the more contentious elements of the bill.
