57:29Now PlayingHealth Secretary Steve Barclay is to make a statement to the House of Commons regarding the inquiry into the Countess of Chester Hospital.
On 31 August 2023, the government announced the inquiry into the murders carried out by former neonatal nurse Lucy Letby will be made statutory, with judges given the power to compel witnesses.
