Civil Liability Bill [Lords]

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

We have just been debating in Westminster Hall the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 and the legal aid cuts. A sustained attack on access to justice has been going on since 2010: the Government have not learnt since then. Is the Bill not just another sustained attack on victims, restricting people from getting a fair trial in the courts—as my hon. Friend says—in the interests of no one except the insurance companies, which are major donors to the Conservative party?
