Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, pursuant to the Answer of 13 July 2017 to Question 3375, on Chester Hospital: maternity services, what recent progress has been made on that investigation.
The investigation by Cheshire Constabulary into a number of baby deaths occurring between June 2015 and June 2016 in the neonatal unit of the Countess of Chester Hospital remains on-going since my previous response in July 2017. We are not able to provide any further details regarding recent progress at this time.
