I have a question for the State Claims Agency. If this major increase is occurring on the private side, are we seeing it on the public side also? We must assume that for a non-profit organisation like the MPS malpractice premia roughly match payouts, allowing for the fact that it needs to build up a war chest for changes in future years. The State Claims Agency is author of data which suggests that its claims over the time when MPS fees have gone up threefold, fourfold or fivefold have also gone up by that amount. How have its pay-outs changed in the past several years?
