Yvette Cooper to launch national maternity plan after Letby case

Health Secretary Yvette Cooper will introduce a "Healthy Babies programme" because the UK has not had a national maternity plan since 2012. The plan aims to track baby and child deaths, which some hospitals currently don't record, a problem highlighted by the Lucy Letby case. It will expand family support services to over 1,000 hubs across England by 2028.
