Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers’ Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2008
I am very pleased with all the detail that the Minister gave and am grateful to him; he may be able to silence me fairly quickly and write to me. The noble Lord, Lord Jones, mentioned one of the diseases that might be classified under the label here of ““etc””—asbestosis. I seem to remember that, 32 years ago, I had occasion to speak on compensation for three associated diseases—pneumoconiosis, asbestosis and another dreadful disease called byssinosis. Did the Minister mention byssinosis? It seemed to be one of the three associated diseases that would be covered by the regulations. Am I right?
