Pneumoconiosis etc. (Workers’ Compensation) (Payment of Claims) (Amendment) Regulations 2025Contribution
To give some headline numbers, there were 2,257 mesothelioma deaths in Great Britain in 2022, as I think I recorded earlier. Among those, there were 1,838 male deaths that year, compared with 1,883 in 2021. There were 419 female deaths in 2022, compared with 407 in 2021. This is consistent with predictions that there will probably continue to be 400 to 500 female deaths a year during the 2020s.
