Public inquiry call over Nottingham trust’s maternity service

The BBC reports that a call has been made for a public inquiry into maternity services at Nottingham’s hospitals trust.

Sue Saddington, chairman of the county council’s health scrutiny committee, said she had put the request personally to the Health Secretary Sajid Javid.

Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) is facing a review after reports 46 babies suffered brain damage and 19 were stillborn between 2010 and 2020. Ms Saddington said the issue needed “urgent attention”.
