Insurers will work with government to allay concerns of plaques sufferers
Legislation is not the answer to the issue of pleural plaques, the ABI has said. Commenting on the publication of a pleural plaques consultation paper by the Ministry of Justice, Nick Starling, director of general insurance and health at the ABI said:
“The way forward must be through education to reassure and allay the concerns of people with pleural plaques. The insurance industry wants to work with the Government to achieve this. Legislation is not the answer. Pleural plaques are symptomless, do not impact on a person’s health, and do not develop into asbestos-related diseases. “
