Mr. John Hall And Compensation For Christmas Island Veterans

EDM number 37 in 1989-90, proposed by Keith Vaz on 21/11/1989.

That this House condemns the Government's policy towards compensation for ex-servicemen, like Mr. John Hall of Belgrave, Leicester, who served on Christmas Island during the nuclear tests in the 1950's and who as a result of this are suffering from the effects of exposure to radiation; and calls upon the Government to seize this opportunity to show compassion and justice by awarding substantial compensation to our Christmas Island veterans without further delay.

This motion has been signed by a total of 50 MPs.
