Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 March 2025
Debate
Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers’ Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2025Contribution
The noble Baroness, Lady Janke, asked about age data. I am not sure I have that information, so I will find out and let her know. She also asked about the amounts. In both schemes, the average amount paid to sufferers was around £15,850, compared with around £10,490 for dependants. However, I think the noble Baroness was asking for the breakdown between dependants and sufferers, and the numbers receiving payments rather than the level, so I might have to write to her on that point as well.
