Thread: Bloody council

Hybrid View

  1. If the council already knew about the hazard and have failed to rectify the signage they are opening themselves to a massive liability suit!

    Go gettum!

    Or not, as the more overinflated liability claims that go ahead over nothing means bigger council tax bills or insurance premiums.

    Looks like no one was injured, the council have been notified of the problem leave it there and sit smug in doing ya public duty, why try and make money out the situation?

  3. Clearly as no-one was injured then no claim is due.

    However, many organisations employ risk assessors to work out whether it is cheaper to pay out damages than it is to carry out the repairs.

    A law suit ups the ante and makes it a cheaper option to make safe the work they are responsible for.
