The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the National Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce will be considering miscarriage care as part of its remit.

Answered by Preet Kaur Gill

The National Maternity and Neonatal Taskforce will translate the recommendations of Baroness Amos’ independent investigation into National Health Service maternity and neonatal care into a national action plan. The Taskforce’s terms of reference sets out that all stages of the maternity and neonatal care pathway will be considered when developing its new national action plan, including miscarriage care. This may include issues not covered in Baroness Amos’ report.
