2.The second line of paragraph 18 on page 13 of the judgment should be corrected and read as:

3.The last sentence of paragraph 19 on page 14 of the judgment should be corrected and read as:

“which showed that the Scheme was discussing with a barrister surnamed Tang [transliteration of鄧] about providing free legal service to the plaintiff, but whether Mr. Tang could help was dependent on whether there was any time available in his diary; and the plaintiff was asked to confirm whether it was the case that she did not need further assistance from the Scheme.”

4.The last two sentences of paragraph 30 on page 21 of the judgment should be corrected and read as:

“When the plaintiff asked the Coroner’s Court on 16 April 2008 for the supply of the documents, she did not ask for the expert report of Professor Lai, so the court clerk did not supply it to her. These circumstances disclosed no contravention of section 13(1).”
