Contaminated Blood

Proceeding contribution from Nadhim Zahawi (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 January 2015. It occurred during Backbench debate on Contaminated Blood.

On the point about the support mechanism, does my right hon. Friend agree that it is unacceptable that the very organisations that were set up to support individuals, such as the MacFarlane Trust, do not treat beneficiaries equitably? My constituent who went to the trust and questioned the response times was branded a troublemaker

and her applications for grants were either delayed or, in some cases, frustrated completely. That is the reality on the ground. Will he say something about some of those organisations?
