Proceeding contribution from Paddy Tipping (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Compensation Bill (HL).


Compensation Bill [Lords]

I am grateful to the Minister for those helpful points. During her discussion and investigation will she look at another asbestos-related issue—pleural plaque? A large number of cases are currently stayed, awaiting a House of Lords judgment, after 20 years of paying compensation for pleural plaque. This, too, is an issue that deserves attention.
