Concerns over ‘Government’s failure’ to act on patient safety recommendations
The Government has failed to implement a number of recommendations from significant inquiries into major patient safety issues, years after they were agreed to, according to an independent panel.
The report, commissioned by the Health and Social Committee in the wake of the Lucy Letby case, voiced concerns about “delays to take real action”.
As part of its investigation, the panel selected recommendations from independent public inquiries and reviews that have been accepted by government since 2010.
Nine or more years have passed since these recommendations were accepted by the government of the day
