Proceeding contribution from Toby Perkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 January 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Breast Implants.
Breast Implants
A constituent in Chesterfield contacted me who is at her wits' end. She has been in considerable pain since having a PIP implant fitted, and has been told by the private provider that she will have to pay £3,600 to have it replaced. What more can the Secretary of State do to ensure that her private provider follows the example of the other eight providers that are doing this free of charge? Let us put some pressure on these companies to make sure that all of them do the same as the NHS and replace the products they have fitted.
