Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Josh Babarinde and Simon Lightwood

Thursday 10th October 2024 Commons Chamber

[Josh Babarinde (Eastbourne) (LD)]

My constituent Alex suffered a life-changing cycling accident at the hands of an untraced driver, and is now battling with the Motor Insurers’ Bureau to get the compensation he deserves. The bureau’s delays in providing compensation are intolerable, and are undermining his confidence to cycle again. Will the Secretary of State or the Minister meet me to discuss Alex’s case, and how the bureau can be reformed to restore cyclists’ confidence in the system?

[Simon Lightwood]

I would be delighted to arrange that meeting.
