Labour (Co-op) — Ealing North

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 June 2026

Debate

Nottingham Maternity and Neonatal Services

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for his comments and questions, and I echo his words about paying tribute to the courage, dignity and determination of the families who have driven the report and driven these shocking failures out into the open, so that we can all see the scale and depth of what has happened. He asks me about embedding the lessons from the review. I assure him that my priority is to ensure that the local lessons around the situation in Nottingham are embedded, and I will meet the chief executive of the trust next week, but also that those recommendations that have implications about national maternity services are taken directly into the taskforce that I chair, along with recommendations from other reports, and that we produce that plan of action by the end of the year. Let me also reassure him that, in that search for change, justice and accountability, I will take nothing off the table.
