<p>The Government is determined to crack down on the compensation culture and has
announced reforms, including raising the small claims limit, to tackle the problem.
These reforms will build on previous measures taken by the MoJ to control costs, tackle
fraud, strengthen the medical evidence process and reduce incentives to pursue trivial
whiplash claims. £5,000 is considered to be the appropriate level for the small claims
limit and the rationale for this will be set out in the consultation document which
will be published in due course.</p>
