Action Against Hypothermia
EDM number 168 in 1991-92, proposed by Jimmy Dunnachie on 14/11/1991.
That this House deplores the fact that many elderly people die each year as a result of hypothermia and illnesses associated with hypothermia; believes that there is overwhelming and irrefutable evidence that this is linked to the fuel poverty experienced by this group; believes that the current method of determining whether or not cold weather payments are triggered during the winter months is a shameful confidence trick; further believes that the current system which forces elderly people to apply in writing each year for cold weather payments is found by many to be daunting and undignified; and calls upon the Government to take action to ensure that no elderly person need die of hypothermia this winter due to lack of money.
This motion has been signed by a total of 83 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
