Lady Justice Thirlwall found there had been a "complete failure" at all levels to invoke safeguarding procedures at the Countess of Chester Hospital, and concluded that some babies would have survived and some attacks prevented had action come earlier.

Thirlwall said parents were "kept in the dark for years" about concerns their babies may have been deliberately harmed, calling the treatment "reprehensible." The inquiry heard from about 400 witness statements over six months.

The report notes that if the babies Letby was convicted of murdering were excluded, neonatal deaths at the hospital would total three in 2015 and three in 2016, broadly in line with earlier years. Her barrister said the inquiry proceeded on a wrong premise.
