ARCHER INQUIRY INTO CONTAMINATED BLOOD AND BLOOD PRODUCTS

Early day motion 1107, tabled 17 March 2009 by Bob Spink (Independent). Signed by 37 members.

That this House congratulates Lord Archer on his Independent Public Inquiry into Contaminated Blood and Blood Products; welcomes his recommendations on forms of relief for the haemophilia community; notes with concern that these forms of relief are restricted to that community and therefore discriminate against other patient groups that have been similarly affected; and calls on the Government to extend the scope of the relief to include all other patient groups which have been infected.
