Baroness Kate Lampard has formally launched the newly converted statutory public inquiry into the deaths of up to 2,000 mental health in-patients at NHS Trusts in Essex.
Baroness Lampard said she is minded to extend the timeframe the inquiry is looking at to include deaths from 1 January 2000 to 31 December this year. NHS staff who refuse to give evidence to the UK’s largest-ever mental health inquiry face arrest under new powers given to the probe.newly converted statutory public inquiry into the deaths of up to 2,000 mental health in-patients
If the witness continues to resist, they can be arrested and brought before the inquiry to give their evidence. Baroness Lampard, who previously led the investigations into Jimmy Savile’s abuse in the NHS, said: “I am determined to conduct this inquiry in a fair, thorough, and balanced manner. I am also concerned to ensure that I do not take any longer than necessary – the recommendations from this inquiry are urgent and cannot be delayed.
The Lampard Inquiry will continue to seek evidence from families of those who died, patients ,and former patients of inpatient services. Baroness Lampard will also seek evidence from those who work in mental health settings, other relevant parties who can help the inquiry understand the circumstances surrounding these cases, and to make recommendations on how to improve the provision of mental health inpatient care.
Shortly after this meeting at 1.30pm, Mr Sargent walked out of the hospital grounds. Staff failed to notice that Mr Sargent had left the hospital. “For our voices to be heard on behalf of Barry, who no longer has a voice. For the public to know that inpatient suicide should never be acceptable and should never happen. To ensure other families never have to experience the loss of a loved one through suicide whilst in an acute hospital setting. For transparency when things go wrong.
