What discussions has the Cabinet Secretary held with the UK Government's Secretary of State for Health in relation to the deaths of babies under the care of Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust? W
Following the announcement by the Secretary of State for Health asking NHS regulators to undertake an investigation at Shrewsbury and Telford NHS Trust maternity services, I have written to the Secretary of State for Health.
I requested that the terms of reference for the investigation and investigative processes incorporate clear collaboration with Powys Teaching Health Board and the care provided to any families within this area. This is to ensure a full investigation of all care provision. I have also requested assurance that the subsequent findings have collaborative dissemination and learning.
