I rise to present this petition on the recommendations of the infected blood inquiry, owing to this Government’s failure to provide justice or compensation to those infected and affected by the contaminated blood scandal. Victims of this scandal and their families have been subjected to unimaginable trauma during their search for justice, and for many of them time is running out. There can be no more delays. Steps must be taken to establish a final body to pay compensation urgently.
The petition states:
“The petition of residents of the constituency of Nottingham South,
Declares that people who have received infected blood and who have suffered as a consequence have, along with their families, waited far too long for redress.
The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to implement the recommendations in the Second Interim Report of the Infected Blood Inquiry without delay.
And the petitioners remain etc.”
[P002933]
