Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 December 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

I agree with my hon. Friend's point, particularly on the effect of the recent House of Lords judgment on pleural plaques, which is being studied. We want to do everything that we can not only to prevent people from suffering from industrial disease, but to compensate and support those who have tragically had their lives ruined simply by working in unhealthy workplaces.
