Duty of Candour Petitionposted on 16 December 2010 | posted in PetitionsPlease sign the 'Duty of Candour" Petition which will prevent HealthCare Professionals from falsyfying medical records. http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/duty-of-candour.html The law as it stands today William and Anita POWELL v. the United Kingdom Application no. 45305/994th May 2000 "Whilst it is arguable that doctors had a duty not to falsify medical records under the common law (Sir Donaldson MR's "duty of candour"), before Powell v Boladz there was no binding decision of the courts as to the existence of such a duty. As the law stands now, however, doctors have no duty to give parents of a child who died as a result of their negligence a truthful account of the circumstances of the death, nor even to refrain from deliberately falsifying records."
