Earlier this week, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care launched a rapid national investigation into NHS maternity and neonatal services.
This will provide truth and accountability for impacted families and drive urgent improvements to care and safety, addressing systemic problems dating back over 15 years.
I’m aware that there is already a corporate manslaughter investigation looking into the failings at maternity units in Queen’s Medical Centre and Nottingham City Hospital, and I will be monitoring this closely alongside the national investigation.
The pain and suffering caused to bereaved families has been devastating, something no parent deserves and we must work harder now to prevent this happening again.Â
Failings must and will be held to account, there is no excuse for this level of gross negligence.Â

This is an incredibly sensitive topic, and I want to highlight the charity Sands, who support anyone affected by pregnancy or baby loss for as long as they need it:

Thank you to Noble Foods for hosting a visit to their egg packing centre.
It was useful to learn more about what goes into processing eggs in the UK and the work that goes into the Lion Egg Standard.
Thanks to the NFU for arranging the Parliamentary Scheme and the work that goes into ensuring that Parliamentarians have an invaluable insight into Farming, Food Production, Food Security, Standards and Safety.

In December I visited Arsenal FC’s Training Ground to hear from their Team Doctor, Zafar Iqbal, on the work he’s been doing to promote CPR and defibrillator education amongst young people.
It was great to hear from him about his passion and dedication to the cause, he is leading the way and has been an advocate throughout his long career as a club doctor.
It was also great to have Bukayo Saka, Martin Ødegaard, Beth Mead and Alessi Russo pop in to hear the work we’re doing in Parliament on Cardiac Risk in Young People.
Every week in the UK, 12 young people die suddenly from an undiagnosed heart condition.
That’s why I reformulated the Cardiac Risk in the Young APPG at the start of this year alongside Cardiac Risk in the Young, and it’s a privilege to be able to Chair the group and to carry this crucial work forward.
Over the past year I have also been engaging with sporting bodies, charities, campaigners and organisations like the British Heart Foundation and Resus UK, and I look forward to building on this even further.
