Rejected petition Make repatriation insurance compulsory for companies sending employees abroad
Following the death in Italy of lorry driver Paul Stephen Stanyard, his company claimed they had no repatriation insurance, and left it to the family to organise, even though he was in Italy on company business. It was down to charitable donations to get Paul home.
