In its new report, the @APPG_OSH has called for Altrad, parent company of Cape, to be banned from government contracts until it pays £10m toward #mesothelioma research. @BainsHarminder and the @asbestosforum gave evidence to the APPG in March and welcome the report. leighday.co.uk/news/news/202…

The APPG makes 3 recommendations to government in its report: 1. Back the call for a £10m donation from Cape towards cancer research 2. Issue no more public contracts to Altrad until this is done 3. Establish a phased asbestos removal plan
