Legal Services Bill [Lords]

May I speak to amendment No. 76, which I tabled with my hon. Friend the Member for Bassetlaw (John Mann)? In Committee, we raised the need to increase the amount of compensation to a more realistic figure. I mentioned the case of Mrs. X of Stanley who could have lost £42,000 because of the negligence of Mark Gilbert Morse—a firm of solicitors in my constituency—regarding a miners' compensation case. I accept that Government amendment No. 96 increases the amount from £20,000 to £30,000, but the purpose of my amendment is to ensure that the amount of compensation does not stick, as has been the case for many years, at a derisory level and is not out of kilter with the extent of people's losses. Will the Minister explain what review mechanism is available to change the amount, if we accept the figure of £30,000 proposed in the Government amendment?
