Ben is joined by Emily Townsend and Zoe Tidman to look at the first weeks of the Thirlwall inquiry into the management response to neonatal deaths at the Countess of Chester, the Lampard inquiry into the deaths of mental health patients in Essex and the module of the covid inquiry covering the NHS response to the pandemic.

The team discuss what we’re likely to learn and what impact they will have on how services, boards and the wider NHS manage themselves.
