▤ Verbatim text from source document
Section 2 of the Compensation Act was brought in to make it easier for organisations to apologise, without admitting liability.
This consultation on the role of apologies in civil proceedings will consider whether the existing legislation in the Compensation Act 2006 is adequate, or whether legislative provisions to clarify or amend the current law would be useful.
