Campaigners opposed to the closure of maternity services at Causeway Hospital in Coleraine have vowed to fight on even after the Department of Health confirmed its decision had been made.
The Department's permanent secretary, Peter May, said on Thursday that the decision to halt births at the Co Derry hospital has been made, with the cut set to take effect next month.
But the chair of a campaign group opposing the closure, Gemma Brolly, has told Belfast Live campaigners are exploring legal options to oppose the decision.
