NHS bossesface sack innew blitz on cover-ups

It comes after warnings that hospital bosses silenced senior doctors who feared killer nurse Lucy Letby might be responsible for the deaths of babies on a neonatal unit.

Retired Det Ch Supt Nigel Wenham last week told a public inquiry that paediatricians at the Countess of Chester Hospital "did raise concerns repeatedly but, sadly, they were shut down".

Letby, 34, is serving 15 whole-life jail terms after she was convicted of murdering seven infants and attempting to murder seven others.

Mr Streeting will set out plans to regulate health service managers, ensuring those who fail to follow professional standards can no longer work in the NHS.
