General reaction from clinicians to the #BawaGarba case:
'If you're going to prosecute us, we're going to cover up more. These are unintended consequences.'
General reaction from NHS complainants:
'And? You've been doing that for decades anyway. Nothing unintended about it.'
1/2 Been thinking about this - took me a while to find the thread again! I don't think the right to remain silent and an individual statutory duty of candour would be incompatible on reflection. Assuming we agree that anyone guilty of actual gross negligence should be prosecuted?

2/2 Where someone has committed such a criminal act, they would then have a choice: 1. Be candid & risk prosecution for gross negligence 2. Remain silent & risk prosecution for failure of stat duty if proven (likely by others around also with a stat duty to be candid about you).
