Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what plans his Department has to reduce stillbirths and improve the safety of maternity care.
In November, I announced a campaign to halve the national rates of stillbirths, neonatal and maternal deaths and brain injuries occurring during or soon after birth, by 2030. This includes a £2.24m fund for Trusts to buy cutting edge equipment, such as CTGs.
