A panel of seven United Kingdom judges will decide next year if the country will follow the Isle of Man and compensate ex-servicemen and women who were exposed to British nuclear tests.
After a campaign by Eddie Lowey MLC, those involved in the tests who live on the Island received £8,000 in 2008.

The case has now been adjourned, with a decision expected in the New Year.
