Ms Barry made the valid point that much of the problem for people in this country is having the resources to take an action such as the ones I have mentioned. It is not simply that one must pay lawyers, one must also pay scientists and doctors to get reports to support the claim. One of the concerns people might have about multi-party actions is that it could become a little like America where there are arrangements whereby a percentage of the pot is taken by the lawyers. Does she think there is potential for that here or does she have any concerns about that?
