| Synopsis: |
The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) is responsible for the administration of the two largest personal injury compensation schemes in the world, in relation to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) contracted by exposure to coal dust, and to Vibration White Finger (VWF) for hand injuries caused by the use of vibrating tools. There are nearly 770,000 claims registered under the two schemes (both of which are now closed to new claimants) and more than GBP 2.3 billion has been paid in compensation so far. It is estimated that the total costs will exceed GBP 7.5 billion once all claims have been settled. The Committee's report examines the background to the two schemes, administration and oversight by the DTI, and current problems with the two schemes. |
