A link is presumed where there is evidence that, on the balance of probabilities, work in the prescribed job or occupational exposure doubles the risk of developing the disease.<\/p> <\/p> The Council keeps all occupational diseases under continuous review to ensure they are in line with current scientific evidence, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and is always prepared to receive and consider new robust evidence from any source.<\/p>"}
