Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 30 March 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Small Claims (Courts).

Small Claims (Courts)

: As a member of the right hon. Gentleman's Committee and someone who signed the report, I say this in no way to sound disloyal, but we may have made a mistake in recommending that the limit be raised to £2,500. Since the report was published, I have had representations from many groups, saying that we got things wrong and that raising the limit, as the hon. Member for North Swindon (Mr. Wills) suggested, is much more unfair to unrepresented litigants. Has the right hon. Gentleman had the postbag that I have had on that issue?
