Pleural Plaques Compensation Scheme

Andrew George MP has signed EDM2171. Motion reads: “That this House welcomes the Pleural Plaques Compensation Scheme which was introduced last year; is disappointed the scheme closed to new applicants on 1 August 2011; and urges the Government to reconsider its decision and put in place further plans to provide compensation to those sufferers diagnosed with pleural plaques since 17 October 2007.”
