A solicitor with the leading law firm in North Wales is representing the family of one of the babies murdered by Lucy Letby at the public inquiry that starts today at Liverpool Town Hall (September 10).
The Thirlwall Inquiry will examine the events at the Countess of Chester Hospital and their implications following the convictions of Letby of the murder and attempted murder of babies at the hospital.
Its purpose is to consider the terms of reference set by the Secretary of State and structured into three parts – Part A explores the parents’ experiences of the Countess and other relevant NHS services; Part B considers the conduct of those working at the Countess including the board, managers, doctors, nurses and midwives regarding the actions of Letby while she was employed there as a neonatal nurse; Part C examines the effectiveness of NHS management and governance structures and processes, external scrutiny and professional regulation.
Evidence will be heard from senior managers at the hospital as well as accounts from bereaved parents.
