As far as the families are concerned, they are recieving recognition that their relatives' work was indeed responsible for their early deaths. Financial payments will never compensate for the loss of a loved one anyway; is £500 really any more acceptable than £7.13?

£5000 (+/-) for playing chicken with a puddle but only
£7.13 for working down the mines for many a year in all various conditions.
And all seems to be in order?
away and go back to playing with your toy motors.
