Background
The 2020 First Do No Harm report exposed decades of avoidable harm from Pelvic Mesh, Sodium Valproate, and Primodos. Key recommendations remain unfulfilled.
We urge the Government to:
Reform the MHRA: Overhaul the regulator to ensure it is patient-centric, transparent, and prioritizes safety over industry interests.
Redress Schemes: Provide financial support for victims
Transparency: Enforce a mandatory register of interests for all doctors.
Thousands of families are still waiting for justice.
