The RHA is delighted that many thousands of operators have already opted into the claim. However, the RHA considered that further time was necessary given the substantial period of time that has passed since the claim was first issued in July 2018, due to delays outside of the RHA's control, and the particular operational pressures on operators during this busy pre-Christmas period. The RHA is currently experiencing a high volume of enquiries regarding the claim, both from operators who had previously signed up and from new class members that wish to join the claim.
The Tribunal agreed with the RHA that in order to ensure effective access to justice for operators, it is appropriate to grant potential class members further time to sign up.
The RHA is particularly keen to hear from operators who registered an interest in the claim previously but have yet to sign up. As a reminder, even if you previously signed up to the claim, since August 2024, you have been required to take further steps to opt in to the RHA’s claim to ensure you can benefit.
