In the histogram in this News article by Zosia Kmietowicz we inadvertently got the legend the wrong way round (12 July, p 69). The dark orange shading in fact represents hospital and community doctors, and the pale shading represents general practitioners. The graph therefore shows that among older doctors (aged ≥ 50) more general practitioners than hospital and community doctors were referred to the National Clinical Assessment Authority during April 2001 to December 2002; among younger doctors (aged < 50), more hospital and community doctors were referred.
