What are the costs involved?

The general legal principle regarding costs in personal injury litigation is that the losing party pays all of the costs. In a group action, where there are established generic issues, the costs of each issue are borne by the losing party, therefore it is possible that even if the claim is successful overall, but a particular issue is lost, the Plaintiffs would have to pay the costs involved in determining that particular issue.
