NHS Resolution is increasing the use of mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution and has also asked trusts to report cases involving a potential brain injury at birth within 30 days of the incident. It has been working to reduce the number claims going into formal court proceedings, where delays can set in, and will report on its performance against this objective in its 2017-18 Annual Report and Accounts.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 19/06/2018 16:39:50 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay
