The Royal College of Midwives (RCM) has welcomed the selection of Baroness Valerie Amos to lead the investigation into NHS maternity and neonatal care, adding it is “vital” the review gets under way quickly.
Baroness Amos was selected by Health Secretary Wes Streeting after bereaved families expressed a preference for someone with distance from the NHS who is able to bring a fresh pair of eyes to the role, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) said.
