OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Redress Schemes for Personal Injuries
Dr Sonia Macleod and Professor Christopher Hodges have recently completed Redress Schemes for Personal Injuries (Hart, 2017).
This book provides the first systematic comparative study of over forty personal injury compensation schemes. It covers the drivers for their creation, their operational frameworks, the criteria and thresholds used, the redress offered, the claims process, statistics on throughput and costs, and core financial analysis. It also considers and compares the schemes’ relative successes and failings.
This talk will focus on how a selection of the schemes fit within their national legislative frameworks and will assess how current proposals to introduce no-blame schemes could fit within our national legal framework.
