Labour (Co-op) — Edmonton and Winchmore Hill

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 April 2025

Debate

Infected Blood Compensation Scheme

Contribution

My constituent, who is 77 years old, is a victim of the infected blood scandal. He is worried that haemophilia patients infected with hepatitis are being sidelined by the compensation scheme. He tells me that he was told those on the special category mechanism with hepatitis C would be upgraded to the same level as those with cirrhosis, but that position has now been reversed. Will the Minister look into my constituent’s concerns about disparities for haemophiliacs infected with hepatitis?
