Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Defence on the exposure of armed forces to the risks of asbestos.
There have been no discussions between the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions and the Secretary of State for Defence on the exposure of HM armed forces to the risk of asbestos. HSE is not aware of any MOD asbestos-related issues that would have required this.
