Health (Tobacco, Nicotine etc. and Care) (Scotland) Act 2016

2016 asp 14

The Act – Overview

Part 1 – Tobacco, Nicotine Vapour Products and Smoking

Chapter 3 – Smoking Outside Hospitals
Duty of candour procedure
Section 23 – Apologies

91.Section 23 defines ‘apology’ in relation to the duty of candour provisions and subsection (2) provides that any apology or other steps taken which are in accordance with the duty of candour procedure set out in regulations made under section 22 cannot be taken by itself to be an admission of negligence or a breach of a statutory duty. This means that there is not to be taken to be a link between giving an apology (or otherwise following the duty of candour procedure) in relation to an incident and acknowledgment of any wrong-doing. This does not prevent individuals affected from taking further action in relation to an incident.
