Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 October 2025

Debate

Civil Justice Council Review of Litigation Funding

Contribution

I commend the right hon. Gentleman for securing the debate; he was right to do so. Although no win, no fee seems like the only reasonable option for those seeking compensation in the civil courts to fund their cases, they can be easily taken advantage of, so does he agree that we need a framework that allows for a reasonable exchange of risk and benefit to consumers, rather than putting the ability to fight for justice just beyond their reach?
