A new report from a group of MPs has accused the government and NHS England of failing to take meaningful steps to tackle the rising cost of clinical negligence claims.

In some cases, the cost-to-damages ratio is as high as 3.7 to 1, meaning victims are paying more in legal fees than the damages they receive.
