PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
Mr. John Hall and Compensation for Christmas Island Veterans (21 November 1989)
Motion Details
That this House condemns the Government's policy towards compensation for ex-servicemen, like Mr. John Hall of Belgrave, Leicester, who served on Christmas Island during the nuclear tests in the 1950's and who as a result of this are suffering from the effects of exposure to radiation; and calls upon the Government to seize this opportunity to show compassion and justice by awarding substantial compensation to our Christmas Island veterans without further delay.
