The Minister is being unusually unkind in that explanation. I was talking about those accidents that are currently successfully sue-able—in other words compensable—and which were almost entirely the fault of the individual whom the accident befell. Clearly, I am not talking about something where the responsibility is 90 per cent or more on the employer or former employer; if he is talking about pneumoconiosis, for example.
