8
National investigation into maternity care presents a turning point for equitable services.
Conclusion
We hope that the national investigation will serve as a turning point for the country’s maternity services, and particularly the experience of Black women, by laying the foundation for a more transparent, accountable, and equitable maternity system. We will monitor the progress of the inquiry closely and intend to revisit its findings, with a view to undertaking further scrutiny at an appropriate stage. (Conclusion, Paragraph 44)
