| Short description: |
A number of families sued Corby District Council saying deformities to hands and feet were due to mothers being exposed to a 'soup of toxic materials' between 1985 and 1999, because of exposure to dust resulting from excavation and removal.
The council was today found negligent over its work to reclaim a steel plant at the High Court in London
