I beg to move amendment 19, in clause 6, page 5, line 37, after “injuries” insert—

“provided by an accredited medical expert selected via the MedCo Portal”.

This amendment, together with Amendments 20 and 21, would ensure that any medical evidence of a whiplash injury must in all cases be provided by a person registered on the MedCo portal website.
