Delay setting up investigation into #HollesStreetBaby case criticised

The solicitor for the couple who had their baby aborted at the National Maternity Hospital at Holles Street after a wrongful diagnosis has expressed frustration at the lack of progress in setting up an investigation.

Experts from the Royal College of Obstetricians are supposed to be appointed to examine the circumstances of the case.

However, solicitor for the couple, Caoimhe Haughey, said Tuesday that “at this stage we still do not know if the Royal College will do so”.

She added: “It is not clear if they are in a position to undertake an investigation and secondly if they are willing to do so.”
