§ The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health (Dr. Stephen Ladyman)I regret that the information I provided in my written statement of 22 June contained an error in line 23 of the table, the entry for the South Yorkshire Strategic Health Authority. Where it read 138 cases eligible for recompense, it should have said 69; and where it read 232 investigations completed, it should have said 163. The correct data is in the table.
