NHS Redress Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Patricia Hewitt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on NHS Redress Bill [HL].
My hon. Friend has a great deal of valuable experience in this matter, but his point seems to reinforce the case for independent legal advice to be available at the end of the process, where, of course, the lawyer can look not only at the details of what happened and any independent medical assessment that has been made, but at the assessment by the NHS Litigation Authority about liability, as well as the level of damages.
