Civil Liability Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Richard Burgon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 September 2018. It occurred during Debate on bills on Civil Liability Bill [Lords].

I have to make some progress, I am afraid.

The Government have said that they will drop vulnerable road users from their reforms. They should indeed do so, but they should also concede that the inclusion of people injured at work is equally unjustified.

It is not only us who oppose these measures. The Justice Committee concluded that

“increasing the small claims limit for personal injury creates significant access to justice concerns.”
