Here we go again. If a claimant brings a claim for injury, the compensation award for which is at the lower end of the spectrum, it is being deemed as being "bent". There might be one or two rogue claimants in there but that does not mean that everyone should be tarred with the same brush. As one poster has said, volumes have increased because of more people being made aware of their rights. That is no bad thing. If travel companies want to eradicate these claims then they can do that by improving standards of food hygiene (preparation and/or storage). No one has ever successfully claimed for food poisoning off correctly prepared and/or stored food where there is a chain of evidence to support the fact that the food was correctly prepared and/or stored. Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater again, eh?
