These amendments make technical changes to Part IV of the Bill, which concerns open disclosure. Amendments Nos. 7 and 8 correct the order of the definitions section to put open disclosure meeting in its proper position ahead of open disclosure of a patient safety incident. Amendments Nos. 9 and 10 remove commas which are not necessary to the meaning of their respective sections and they are being removed for clarity. Amendment No. 11 substitutes the word "subsequent" with "additional", which in respect of an additional information meeting is the term used in the relevant section.
