Until now, children have only been entitled to compensation for lost earnings for the years they are expected to live. We consider the wider impact on public finances. Also on PM, NHS bosses are warning that a shortage of medical cement is likely to lead to delays for a number of patients waiting for knee or hip replacements. And we ask one of the architects of the minimum wage whether or not he thinks there should be one rate for adults of all ages -- as the government delays implementation of its manifesto pledge.
