The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will make it his policy to produce a set of specific local recommendations for each trust included in the Amos review of maternity and neonatal care following the publication of the National recommendations.

Answered by Preet Kaur Gill

The National Maternity and Neonatal Investigation, led by Baroness Amos, is bringing together the findings from past reviews, local investigations in selected trusts, and evidence from families and staff into one single set of national recommendations.

The Government’s Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce will lead work to translate these recommendations into a national action plan and will hold the system to account to drive consistent improvement across all trusts.
