"The Industrial Injuries Advisory Council (IIAC) monitors the changing scientific evidence related to the Industrial Injuries Scheme and publishes reports of its reviews.
This collection brings together:
command papers – reports resulting in recommendations for changes to legislation
position papers – reports of full reviews that do not result in a recommendation for a legislative change
information notes – reports of reviews if there is insufficient evidence for a position paper
commissioned reviews

Command papers
If a full review results in a recommendation for a legislative change, IIAC publishes the report as a command paper.
