<p>During Cabinet Office Oral Questions on Wednesday 14 November, in response to questions
about the Infected Blood Inquiry from Member for Manchester, Withington Jess Smith
MP and the Member for Kingston upon Hull North Diana Johnson MP, I used the word “compensation”
to refer to the financial payments made to victims of infected blood. In doing so,
I misspoke. I should instead have used the words “financial support”. I am sorry for
any confusion this may have caused in the House. I am happy to make that clarification,
and the record has been corrected to reflect this.</p>
