Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, mine is on 3(A). It says “No judgment or claim shall be payable by an insurer unless the judgment debtor and the claimant---” I suggest that we delete the word “debtor”. Why should we involve him in a medical examination; it is the claimant. The person who is claiming is alleging or claiming that he had injuries. Why should we expose the debtor to an examination?

I would imagine that a judgment debtor is the person against whom the claim is made. So, if somebody files a suit against you then you are the judgment debtor. The claimant is the person who is claiming. So, why should we--
