Tony Dorrian Workers Party Representative has called on the Minister for Health to implement a Statutory Duty of Candour for all Health and Social Care Organisations in Northern Ireland.

Mr Dorrian said over the past number of weeks and months we have seen the publication of a number of public inquiries,reports, and investigations in to the delivery of sub-standard and deliberate neglect and cruelty. In our health and social care services. This erodes public confidence in our health and social care systems some of these reports quite rightly places blame on those who deliberately abused patients and service users in their care. The fact that despite numerous recommendations from previous inquiries that a Statutory Duty of Candour be implemented through Legislation it is still not in place must be questioned, Northern Ireland is the only Region in the UK that has not introduced legislation that would place an obligation on our healthcare system to be transparent when things go wrong.
