May 2026: Thirlwall Inquiry report delayed to at least September 2026 · six-baby inquests relisted to 2027 · CCRC review active · Shoo Lee Panel: no medical evidence of deliberate harm.
Independent paediatric pathologists file supplementary findings with the Criminal Cases Review Commission, addressing post-mortem material in indicted cases including findings consistent with necrotising enterocolitis (NEC), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) hemodynamic effects, and persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN) sequelae. The supplementary findings expand the October 2025 paediatric-pathology re-readings already in the CCRC file and reinforce the natural-cause and prematurity-associated mechanisms the Shoo Lee Panel identified.
