Maternity Safety Strategy

Mims Davies Excerpts

Tuesday 28th November 2017 Commons Chamber

[Mr Hunt]

I absolutely undertake to look into that case and ensure a proper investigation into what is happening. The hon. Gentleman is right; in the end, we need to be much more open about this data, so I commend the trust for sharing the data publicly. Until we access such data, we will not know where the issues are that we need to solve.

[Mims Davies (Eastleigh) (Con)]

With this vital new focus on safer births, will there be an opportunity to look at group B strep and other issues that if undetected in the later stages of pregnancy can result in baby loss?

[Mr Hunt]

I am very happy to undertake to do that.
