My understanding of the Osborne reforms is that the £5,000 small claims court limit can be pushed through without
parliament and the Lords agreeing to it BUT that the scrapping of the long-held right under common law tort to claim compensation for 'soft tissue ' injuries, will require legislation. How is a 'soft tissue' injury defined and diagnosed.....................?
The scrapping of this common law right by statute will open a can of worms, and I think that it has a very good chance of never receiving royal assent. Don't forget that the UK government has a majority of only 12. Even Tory rebels, let alone the Liberals and Labour parties might well scupper it.
After all, this was a deal by Osborne to keep the powerful insurance lobby sweet.
