Infected Blood Inquiry: Additional Report

Contribution

Before considering the detail of the report, I want to share the latest delivery figures from the Infected Blood Compensation Authority. As of 15 July, IBCA has contacted 2,215 people to begin their claim, and 1,934 have started the claims process; 808 offers have been made, to a total value of over £602 million; and 587 people have accepted their offer, and over £411 million has been paid in compensation. That means that approximately 60% of infected people registered with a support scheme have been contacted to begin their claim.
