HC Deb 15 December 1977 vol 941 c394W
Mr. Lee

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many successful actions for negligence have been brought against the National Health Service authorities during the last five years as a result of errors by anaesthetists; and what is the combined total of damages awarded in all such cases.

Mr. Moyle

I regret that this information is not available centrally and could not be obtained without disproportionate cost.
