The government has denied to raise the pay of haemophiliacs who were offered contaminated blood in the 1970s and 1980s.
Public health minister Anne Milton claimed that increase in payments is in sync with the fact that the scandal is priced at £3bn and was unaffordable in the current climate. The campaigners however "encouraged" the thought of a new review and urged for higher payment modes for the ones who are affected.
The blood mayhem caused a total of 4,670 haemophiliacs in the UK unwittingly given blood contaminated with hepatitis C. 1200 were reported to have been infected with HIV. The blood was received from US, including drug users and prison inmates.
The topic was raised in the court on the floor of the House of Commons today Milton said she did "not consider there is a case" for laying any recommendations.
"I recognise this will be disappointing to those living with the consequences of this tragic episode," she added.
Her statement was received as a shock to with respect to a judicial review occurring in case of early government's decision not to implement the Archer suggestions.
