Row 3 of Table 1 reads in the original as “Age at PLS-5 assessment” - it should be corrected to ‘Age at ELIM Assessment’. Row 3 of Table 1 reads in the original as “Age at ELIM Assessment” - it should be corrected to ‘Age at Recruitment’. To further clarify this they also request the addition of the following text – indicated in italics – to the method (This is in paragraph 3 of the methods on page 3) Informed consent was obtained from all the study participants and their legal guardian/parents by the HV conducting the Study ELIM at the review, however the Study ELIM and Preschool Language Scale (PLS-5) were completed during separate meetings within 2 weeks of one another. Where consent was given the HV allocated the child a unique ID code to ensure anonymity and administered the Study ELIM.
