COAL MINE SURFACE WORKERS' CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE SCHEME
EDM number 410 in 2004-05, proposed by Michael Clapham on 16/12/2004.
That this House is disappointed by the decision not to establish a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease scheme for the relatively small number of surface mine workers who did not work underground or worked underground for less than five years and who were involved in processing coal and exposed to a dusty environment covered by the 1974 Coal Miners' Pneumoconiosis Scheme; and calls on the Department for Trade and Industry to reconsider its decision.
This motion has been signed by a total of 89 MPs.
