MoJ weighs up multiple discount rate

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) is seeking evidence on whether a dual or multiple personal injury discount rate system might work, and what impact this might have on claimants and defendants.

It is looking for input from people with an interest in high-value personal injury claims in England and Wales.

The consultation, ‘Personal injury discount rate: exploring the option of a dual/multiple rate’, closes on 11 April and a response document is expected by July 2023. View the consultation here.
