McMillan Looks Forward to Action Mesothelioma Day

Stuart McMillan MSP, (SNP) has today (Friday) lodged a motion in the Scottish Parliament supporting the fifth annual Action Mesothelioma Day, which will occur on 2nd July 2010.

Mr McMillan will also be attending the first ever Scottish Patient carers day, hosted by Clydeside Action on Asbestos, on Action Mesothelioma Day.

Mr McMillan said;

"I welcome the fifth annual Action Mesothelioma Day which takes place on Friday 2nd July and I will be attending the first ever Scottish Patient carers day in Glasgow on the same day.

"It's important to raise awareness of the mesothelioma and other asbestos related conditions to highlight what is being done to improve treatment and care.

" I would like to, once again, commend Clydeside Action on Asbestos for all their work in highlighting asbestos related conditions and for their efforts in helping secure the Damages (Asbestos-related Conditions) (Scotland) Act."
