A Bill to place a duty on the Secretary of State to improve the diagnosis and treatment of persons who have suffered or continue to suffer ill effects from Covid-19 vaccines; to make provision about financial assistance to persons who have suffered disablement following vaccination against Covid-19 and to the next of kin of persons who have died shortly after vaccination against Covid-19; to require the Secretary of State to report to Parliament on the merits of a no-fault compensation scheme to provide such financial assistance, on whether there should be any upper limit on the financial assistance available, on the criteria for eligibility and on whether payment should be made in all cases where there is no other reasonable cause for the death or disablement suffered; and for connected purposes.
The Bill would require the government to improve how Covid-19 vaccine injuries are diagnosed and treated. It also provides for financial help for people who have become disabled after vaccination and for the families of those who died soon after vaccination, and asks Parliament to consider a no-fault compensation scheme with rules on eligibility and potential payment limits.
The Bill is at the 2nd Reading in the House of Commons. If it progresses, it would move to committee stage for detailed scrutiny and then to the Lords for consideration.
