The infected blood scandal saw more than 30,000 NHS patients receive contaminated blood products, leading to the deaths of at least 3,000 people.
In Norwich, many of those who waited for justice never lived to see it.
The delays and barriers facing those seeking compensation have only exacerbated the injustice of this shameful episode.
That’s why I’ve written to Baroness Twycross, the minister responsible for the infected blood compensation scheme, and the Chief Executive of the Infected Blood Compensation Authority, calling for action to speed up claims and ensure those affected are treated fairly.
With a victim dying on average every four days, the Government must act to deliver the compensation people are owed.
