SCORES of businesses hit by the bungled insulation scheme are planning to sue for millions of dollars.
About 40 insulation companies from across the country met at Sydney law firm Swaab Attorneys on June 21 and voted to launch a collective action for damages. Swaab is preparing their case.
Another law firm, Hunt & Hunt, is also preparing an action against the Government on behalf of more than 10 freight companies who were left with unused batts.
In May the Government announced it would offer $15 million compensation after axing the $2.45 billion insulation scheme in April.
