In the conclusion the Secretary of State for Health accepts the proposal to set up a working group to develop a bespoke process for clinical negligence claims initially valued up to £25,000 and a grid of fixed recoverable costs for such cases. The Civil Justice Council has already begun work to establish the working group who are expected to publish recommendations in Autumn 2018, which will be considered as quickly as possible by the Government.
