Mesothelioma Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Andy McDonald (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 December 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Mesothelioma Bill [Lords].

Does my hon. Friend agree that we are talking about sophisticated people, who have battalions of actuaries to look at the figures, and that they would have taken into consideration the possibility of having the cut-off date as 10 February 2010 rather than later? That would have been in their thinking, so why can they not be encouraged to step up to the mark and live up to their responsibilities?
