Closed Review use of hazardous substances in the military

Closed on

As a veteran of 23 years service I have witnessed a number of veterans who are starting to suffer from health conditions that I fear could be the result of exposure to hazardous substances rather than the dangers of where we were sent to serve all over the world. This possibility should be reviewed.

The Government should review use of hazardous substances in the military, and the risks (if any) these pose to military personnel. If there are risks to personnel the Government should initiate a national review of all veterans to identify any adverse effects caused by exposure to hazardous substances.
