Clause 2
Driving Instruction (Suspension and Exemption Powers) Bill

Robert Goodwill (Shadow Minister, Transport; Scarborough and Whitby, Conservative)
I have one brief question on which the Minister might want to comment. When we dealt with the money resolution, we talked about a figure of five or six cases a year in which compensation might be payable and around £60,000 in total to include both the administration and the compensation. While it is fairly easy to identify a figure for loss of income, does he have any concerns that a reputation figure might well be inflated? Is he content that the figures we are talking about are likely to be the sort of figures settled upon in such cases?
