More help needed on poison gas safety

GAS suppliers and mortgage and insurance companies are being urged to fund a nationwide campaign about the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning.

And people caught breaking the law doing dodgy work on gas appliances which lead to serious injury or death must face harsher punishments.

The plea came at the launch of a major campaign in Kirklees warning of the dangers and how to avoid them.

The campaign - three years after the death from carbon monoxide poisoning of 10-year-old Fartown boy Dominic Rodgers - will see his photograph on buses across West Yorkshire.
