The State Claims Agency has advised that it settles very few claims which are subject to a confidentiality agreement with the exception of cases settled through mediation. The Agency does not formally record, on its IT system, the fact that any individual settlement is bound by a confidentiality clause. Therefore this information is not readily available.
