Surgical Mesh Implants: Compensation
Asked by: Allison Gardner (Labour - Stoke-on-Trent South) Wednesday 29th April 2026 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress his Department has made on compensating people with pelvic mesh injury sufferers; and what his planned timeline is for delivering that compensation. Answered by Zubir Ahmed The Government is carefully considering the work done by the Patient Safety Commissioner and her report, which set out recommendations for redress for those harmed by valproate and pelvic mesh. The Government has deep sympathy for all those affected and recognises the profound impact that these harms have had on individuals and their families. My Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, has been clear that he wants to make meaningful progress during this Parliament, although a decision to provide compensation has not yet been made. We recognise how difficult and disappointing this uncertainty is for those affected, and we will ensure that the public is kept informed as soon as any decision on redress is made. I met with the Patient Safety Commissioner, Dr Henrietta Hughes since I have been in post, and had a very productive discussion about the ongoing health initiatives led by the Department regarding sodium valproate and pelvic mesh. Details of the Government’s work to date are set out in recent letters to the Dr Hughes, which are published on her website. |
