Book excerpt: The Law Commission has not examined the subject of personal injury litigation for some years. Much has happened since then. This consultation paper arises from the Law Commission's current examination of the principles governing and the effectiveness of the present remedy of damages for monetary and non-monetary loss. It addresses aspects of the question of whether the damages remedy is effective, and how it can be made more effective. It canvasses the deficiencies of lump sum damages, and considers whether the development of voluntary structured settlements, and the existing provisions for interim and provisional payments, usefully correct such deficiencies.
