Conduct Of Watson Burton In Connection With Coal Health Claims

EDM number 2722 in 2005-06, proposed by Kevan Jones on 11/10/2006.

That this House condemns the actions of the law firm Watson Burton who, by colluding with the claims handling firm P and R Associates, deducted £325,000 from the compensation of coal health victims; believes that Watson Burton should have informed their clients that there was no need to deduct money from their compensation; and further believes that Watson Burton should pay back those former miners and widows of former miners who have had their rightful compensation reduced as a result of these unscrupulous practices.

This motion has been signed by a total of 82 MPs.
