It would be incredible for us to have to accept that only those three homes which lodged an appeal had their appeals upheld, that they hit the jackpot, just happened to be the people who were entitled and that they got paid.
The thinking being presented here is that anybody else who was analogous, who did not appeal or apply, were people who were thought of as not entitled to this redress. It strikes me that it just does not work like that. Would Mr. Watt accept that there is a very strong possibility that there are people in similar circumstances who would have qualified?
