in london british victims of the active ingredient in counter gun have teamed up and formed a group called solidify trust. to bias aren't present his findings from the german archives. letters files of minutes outlining the role politics played during the criminal trial against the manufacture of good intel these documents shed new light on what happened fifty five years ago. it isn't just british that it might survivors who are convinced they find allies in all british political parties. in feb twenty fifth in an unusual debate takes place in the british parliament. which is the michael moore thank you mr speaker for over fifty years the little misers have been campaigning for justice particularly from the german manufacturers

. know that over one hundred fifty m.p.'s of signed an open letter to the german chancellor with the prime minister add this to his busy agenda today so that we might get a decent and fair assessment for all concerned. i have on behalf of a constituent as he raised this issue not only through the european parliament but also with german authorities and i'll certainly reflect what the old gentleman says . more than one hundred fifty british m.p.'s from all political parties have signed a letter to the german chancellor. unlike germany britain does have a tradition of rebellion when dealing with the little mite the active ingredient of going together. the four hundred sixty six members of the through to my trust and not just fighting for compensation. they want those responsible for their disabilities to be held to account. is one of them thinks they have almost succeeded who. who had which ties and to whom and with his chart to explain the

connections to german politicians as well as representatives in the european parliament if they hadn't ended the trial as they did in the early seventy's then the evidence would have been available to the victims to use in their future actions against good intel and others and in particular the u.k. survivors action in the seventy's would have undoubtedly have been and it in a much more favorable fashion to to the claimants as it was they didn't have the evidence they had to settle for a much bigger discount in the in the amount that they should have got than would have the bad to be in that case if there's evidence to be available they were got a proper settlement and that's what they threw them out as they're after now. the british lawyer thinks evidence of that confidential meeting is crucial it took place in july nine hundred sixty nine but the ministry of health and bone. senior management from come to guns manufacturer were invited to discuss the settlement of the counter gun case according to

a note from the ministry. the goal of the meeting is to reach a legal agreement with the company as to how country gun victims can be compensated . when the parents association of the deformed children hints of the plans and hand asks to see details of the meeting the ministers say is under no circumstances will the association receive any details as advice is explicit because art in document the killer or. norm. signs all those of you how kind of all are. doing to hang with. the district on half a century later in the summer of twenty fifteen a meeting between british that are my victims and representatives of the german government took place at germany's embassy and i think they heard the concerns we had they obviously refute the fact that they interfered in. criminal trial but

they've never actually answered individually the documents that we put to them. the british m.p. simon hall was also present at the german embassy meeting. it was really i think to hobbes the first half i thought was very positive so clearly the mood music coming out from officials on the on the german side of the table as it were it was very encouraging that they wanted to have a dialogue they wanted to see this brought to a conclusion we had to leave as we had to go back to the commons to vote and then the notes following that seem to suggest that they slightly dried up like clapham and it was very much we're not going to get involved this is the only meeting we're going to have to discuss this effectively that's the end of the news i think if there was anything which came out of the meeting which we had at the embassy in july of last year is that there had been a long debate point as to whether the drug which had been taken by british mothers

had been manufactured in germany or had been manufactured under license in the u.k. and it is now a very clear that the german officials taking tided the point that the third trust in the u.k. has been making for many a long year that there was no. manufactured in the u.k. and that which was taken by british mothers or expectant mothers had been manufactured in germany. this is knowledge to solidify victims receive decades too late since the one nine hundred seventy s. people affected both a little might have only been able to file compensation applications with the german government anyone who does file an application must renounce all claims against the manufacturer. many european victims say they have received little or no compensation at all. the federal ministry of family affairs declined to be interviewed. norm would comment on the

meeting with british counter gun victims at the german embassy in london. it stated only that the counter gun trust fund grants financial support when claims are grounded. christie and alltel also apply for support. yeah and clark from college don't have one as an instance of one as. i and box spring bet. i was going to tarboro on my no cornish madson in english yeah and it's good bye to how it's one of one armored wish to get in on and off my macbook air as it could be a clear investment of the east ass baskets bookish ones and if you shop at dollar for some of them you get this work you don't. that he is but about how can we spend a third of our lives in our beds our beds are important and for it to be turned down on that basis is utterly ridiculous and so it's abundantly clear to me that

applying to the call to go isn't going to be a solution for us at all and so therefore for us to be subjected to a ridiculous system bureaucratic system at this point in our lives it's not going to meet our needs all we need is money that we can use in the ways that we know that will suit us best. the formosa little manufacturer no longer considers claims from the victims of the drug to be the responsibility. the tougher. side. want. because we're tiny unclogging going on a mission isn't hard to get you double tough no fun to put up for when tiger seeded border. of i know him from life and until own just its. supporters not paid by grown until but the federal government. one of many who is applications to the

german county gun foundation were denied his lorraine mercer sometimes i think. because. i. stick. to my back. when i move in. some of the later complications are only now becoming apparent most of the need supplementary oxygen just to be able to breeze there is a fund in germany connected to the court against gift which allows the later might is to apply to it for financial assistance there's also a fund that's been set up by agreement to apply to that but you can apply to them saying you wanted some more money but you have to. prove first of all you've applied to a little more trust to get some money and they have said no and they've applied to all the charities and you've tried to local government to see if you can get assistance when you've been rejected by everybody you can then bring

a task they would like to contribute some money towards your. financial assistance but you're not really aware that because green atar hasn't made it public to thalidomide is outside of germany in fact the company established a private foundation. however does not want to talk about it nor do they want to discuss how application decisions are made they say they don't want to provoke and . we played a joke government should be responsible for paying for this i'm at health is that we or have no free money get that money remains to be made. in great britain so robert nelson is a well known judge he's written to the german federal ministry of family affairs. the purpose of the letter was to bring home to the german government the problems that the flu the mother's face and the shortfall in finances that we felt they had

in the amal they got and the amount that they would in fact need i wrote it to the relevant minister and there was no reply as. for decades parents never knew what was going on behind their backs during the criminal trial they were only allowed to be spectators. the thalidomide manufacturers defense strategy was to convince the prosecution to agree to dismiss the case. they knew that they didn't just have the regional government justice minister on their side but the federal government too however the dismissal of a criminal. case requires strict conditions least according to the prosecution service would not matter.
