Ban On Asbestos Use

EDM number 1021 in 1995-96, proposed by Eddie Loyden on 19/06/1996.

That this House congratulates the Construction Safety Campaign for organising the Asbestos Conference in Sheffield on 1st June 1996 calling for the banning of asbestos from all construction work, removing asbestos safely by unionised labour, justice for asbestos victims, raising awareness amongst workers in maintenance, refurbishment and demolition, and tougher penalties for those who break the asbestos laws; is concerned that many asbestos victims have trouble getting state and civil compensation, official or hospice care and that the Compensation Recovery Unit still claws back victims benefits; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to support an international ban on the use of all asbestos.

This motion has been signed by a total of 82 MPs.
