The Public Liability (Compulsory Insurance) Bill would require companies and certain other people to take out compulsory liability insurance to cover injuries to members of the public and damage to premises caused by their activities. It outlines what must be insured and how claims would work, with the aim of making it easier for victims to obtain compensation.
The bill is currently at the second reading in the House of Commons; after this stage it would typically move on to committee scrutiny for detailed examination.
