Summary
To pass a law allowing UK Military Veterans who left the forces prior to 1987 to claim compensation for damage to their hearing suffered as a result of their Military Service to this country. Currently Veterans who served after 1987 may be able to claim against the MOD for damage to their hearing. We think it is grossly unfair that their colleagues who left before 1987 are prevented from claiming. They made the same sacrifices serving their country and deserve the same rights to claim compensation.
