Speaking in the House of Lords on 19 March 2025

Debate

Infected Blood Compensation Scheme Regulations 2025

Contribution

The noble Baroness, Lady Featherstone, raised the delays to interim payments due to the lack of official documents. We regret the issues some applicants found when making an application for an interim payment. When the issue was brought to our attention, we acted quickly with representatives of the infected blood community to put a solution in place for those impacted. We hope this will not happen again.
