Mr. Wrigglesworth

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what were the costs to public funds of the case of Dr. Lim Poh Choo v. the Department of Health and Social Security.

Mr. Moyle

Judgment in the case of Dr. Lim Poh Choov. Camden and Islington Area Health Authority has been given in the High Court for £243,309 plus interest and costs, but a stay of execution in respect of part of this sum has been granted pending a possible appeal. The final cost to public funds, therefore, is not yet known.
