Compensation for Christmas Island H- bomb test veterans, families & inhabitants

Compensation for Christmas Island H- bomb test veterans, families & inhabitants — 57 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

Introduce compensation for veterans, their families and inhabitants affected by 1950s bomb tests, including the H-bomb, on Christmas Island. Some veterans of weapons tests from other countries have been compensated. But the UK government has not introduced compensation for veterans of British tests.

Additional details

I believe the Government should give deserved justice to the veterans and families of those affected.
