Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 26 February 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers’ Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2009.


Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers’ Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2009

My Lords, can the noble Lord explain something? Since these are one-off payments, there must be a rising acceptance of the incidence of these diseases before the peak is reached and then falls away. How does what he has just said fit in with that?
