Hospital staff could be prosecuted if Kate’s medical notes accessed, says minister

Maria Caulfield warns of enforcement action after London Clinic launches investigation into security breach

Staff at the London Clinic could face enforcement action, including fines and prosecutions, if they are found to have accessed the Princess of Wales’s medical records, a government minister has said.

Health minister Maria Caulfield told Sky News it was “pretty severe and serious stuff to be accessing notes that you don’t have permission to”.
