Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Order)
These Regulations substitute the table in Schedule 4 to the Mesothelioma Payment Scheme Regulations 2014. This has the effect of increasing the level of payments made under the scheme for each age category by an average £8000.
An impact assessment has been published which considers the impact of this change in the level of payments made under the scheme on the private sector or on civil society, a copy of which is available at:
