EARLY SETTLEMENT BY INSURANCE COMPANIES

Motion Text

That this House is concerned that people who have been injured through no fault of their own are being subjected to high pressure tactics from some insurance companies; notes that such tactics can impede proper access to justice for injured people and compound their distress; believes that all injured people should be made aware of their right to independent legal advice; and calls on the Government to work with the Financial Services Authority to introduce regulation in this area to protect injured people.
