Opposition Assistant Whip (Commons)
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 11 March 2025 to Question 35836 on NHS: Negligence, how many separate instances of clinical negligence in England where NHS Resolution paid damages were there in each financial year since 2019-20, broken down by speciality.
Ashley Dalton
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Health and Social Care
NHS Resolution (NHSR) manages clinical negligence and other claims against the National Health Service in England.
NHS Resolution has provided the requested information broken down by financial year since 2019/20 as well as specialty and scheme. Low figures have been supressed to protect claimant identity. NHSR may make more than one payment on a claim and therefore the volume of payments may exceed the volume of those claims where payments have been made. A copy of the information is attached.
