The hon. Member must not think that everyone on this side is inhuman, and that we do not intend to work this scheme as sympathetically as we can. In my experience a Court very often orders compensation to be paid pending the decision of the House of Lords. In that event, of course, adjustments will be made. How far one can go back in a case of that kind I should hesitate to say, but certainly we shall not press unduly on the widow in cases of that kind.
