Recommendation (the committee's words)
Establishing the precise criteria for an administrative patient injury compensation system based on system error is a complex task. We have taken evidence from various successful international schemes that each use a different threshold and we do not seek to be prescriptive over which threshold should be used in England. We recommend that the Government should consult widely at home - and evaluate best practice from abroad - to ensure that the bar is set appropriately.
