I move amendment No. 13:

In page 21, between lines 16 and 17, to insert the following:“Meaning of “Category A safety incident”

8. In this Part, “Category A safety incident”, in relation to the provision of a health service to a patient by a health services provider, means an unintended or unanticipated incident that occurred in respect of a patient in the course of the provision of a health service to that patient which has caused—

(a) the death of the patient, where the death relates directly to the incident rather than to the natural course of the patient’s illness or underlying condition, or

(b) major harm, moderate harm or prolonged psychological harm to the patient.”.
