  'Such costs should be borne by the party that needs the report, and not the consumer.'

  MR TAN KIN LIAN: 'Some consumers have to pay $90 or more to get a medical report that is usually required by another party, for example, the insurance company, employer or for national service deferment. I suggest the Government make it clear that such costs should be borne by the party that needs the report, and not the consumer. These big organisations are in a better position to negotiate the fee for the report, or change their requirements to reduce its cost.'
