Government Announces Increased Payments For People With Mesothelioma

04/03/2010

The Government has announced that lump sum payments to people with mesothelioma under the 2008 Mesothelioma Scheme will increase by around 40% from April.

The increase means that people who develop mesothelioma as a result of exposure to asbestos in a non-work setting will now receive the same level of payment as those exposed to asbestos at work.

More details can be found on the DWP website
