Posthumous claims can be made by widows/dependants under the Coal Industry Pneumoconiosis Compensation Scheme. In 2017 there were 95 claims and payments totalled £211,175. Under the 2008 Diffuse Mesothelioma Scheme (2008 Scheme) and the Diffuse Mesothelioma Payment Scheme (DMPS) payments can be made to certain eligible dependants of those individuals who died with Diffuse Mesothelioma before they could make an application to the Scheme, assuming the individual with the disease was eligible for a payment. The most recent quarterly statistics relating to the 2008 Scheme can be found on sheet “IIDB3_2” via gov.uk The information requested about DMPS payments made posthumously is not available. For all the schemes there is no available data on the numbers of claims in respect of men and women.
