Miners Compensation Claims
EDM number 163 in 2001-02, proposed by John Cummings on 17/07/2001.
That this House notes the continuing anxiety, anger and frustration at the continuing delays in settling claims for chronic bronchitis and emphysema; and calls for the convening of a meeting between all interested parties, the Department for Trade and Industry, Solicitors' Group, National Union of Mineworkers, IRISC and Health Call so that the problems can be identified and a common solution agreed, as it would appear that each party is blaming another for the delays.
This motion has been signed by a total of 51 MPs.
