Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 13 March 2012. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers' Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2012.


Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers' Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2012

I am sorry to press the noble Lord but this is something which is quite current given that there is going to be a debate tomorrow on the Bill. Have I correctly understood what the noble Lord has said? Do the Government recognise that these proposals mean that the compensation of recoveries is going to be reduced by the effect of these fees, or are the fees otherwise going to have to be met out of the 2008 compensation?
