Clause 4
Damages (Asbestos-Related Conditions) Bill
Public Bill Committees, 1 July 2009, 10:00 am
Andrew Dismore (Hendon, Labour)
The only point that I need to bring to the Committee’s attention is that the clause has the effect of not unscrambling settlements that have already been made. Some cases were settled, albeit at a considerable undervalue, and it would not be appropriate to go back and revisit them.
