Can Mr. Fraser provide an indication of how old claims can be? We can see that this dates from 2011, which is when the tribunal concluded its work. It was going on for some years before that. I will use that as an example. Can claims be outstanding for 15 or 20 years? Is there a cut-off point or a statutory limit?
