Negligence and Damages Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill changes the rules about negligence, when someone is careless and causes you injury or loss. It affects how courts handle these cases and how much compensation (money) people can receive. The exact changes aren't clear from the title alone, but they will impact anyone making a claim against someone for careless actions.

Presented by Andy McDonald.
