Proceeding contribution from Lindsay Hoyle (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 July 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Summer Recess Adjournment.


Summer Recess Adjournment

My hon. Friend is generous with her time. [Interruption.] She has a bit of it to kill. Is there an estimate of how many people will have died before any compensation is paid in respect of Equitable Life? What time scale is involved? There is a "long-stop date", but what does that mean? The truth is that the people have waited for long enough. The time is now ripe to pay them; they should not have to wait any longer. What pressure can my hon. Friend put on the Treasury so that it comes back with the answers that all our constituents want to hear?
