Proceeding contribution from Lord Lyell (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 26 February 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers’ Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2008.


Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers’ Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2008

I am much obliged to the noble Lord. As a good accountant, I shall no doubt listen to the details of whether there is the same compensation for all the diseases or whether it is different for some of them; I suspect that the population of unfortunate sufferers from these three or five diseases will have varying numbers according to the severity of the disease. I would be pleased if he let me have that information in a note in due course, and I shall make way for much more important speakers than myself.
