I have heard that once the regulatory authority of some EU country
recommends items (such as these implants) as safe, the regulators from
any other country is not allowed to do it's own tests/overrule this
pronouncement.

So, clearly the French recommended these things as safe and they must
pay the cost of removal/replacement.

There is a lengthy discussion on this matter over at
uk.legal.moderated

But while we're here, am I the only one struck by the similarity of
the situation that had just made the news with a plot on "Holby City"
a month or two back and which would have been filmed several months
before then. Has this been rumbling on for some while behind the
scenes?

Yes.

Didn't the PIP thing start to, up, blow up around a couple of years ago?

Harry had a silicone brain implant to make his look bigger.

Yes, it has. I recall reading about a woman several years ago whose
implants were leaking and causing all sorts of side-effects. I don't
recall whether she had PIP implants, but I do recall the surgeon who
removed them was a bit scathing about the quality.

No.
Pap In Plastic.

As you posted it in this DIY group I half expected to read a DIY removal
technique. Could make an interesting movie as the police close in on the
mystery breast mangler. Kind of puts one off ones cornflakes thinking about
it.

Have been hearing a kerfuffle about implants for a while, not once have
I heard what the pip bit was.(I have since discovered "Poly Implant
Prostheses")

Nobody recommends medical devices as safe. They, in the form of
authorised auditors, often working in many countries, confirm that the
devices meet the requirements of EU Directive 93/42/EEC, which allows
them to be placed on the market. Any national authority, the Medicines
and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in Britain, can
subsequently investigate whether the product is fit for purpose and can
order a partial or complete product recall, if any end user raises any
concerns about it.

The manufacturers must have had product liability insurance before being
able to sell to the NHS (£10 million minimum when I used to do it), so
the ultimate responsibility for paying will lie with the insurers. The
problem for now is who pays in the short term.
