The General Medical Council is to consider the damning hyponatraemia report, which found that the hospital deaths of four children were avoidable.

Adam Strain was four years old when he died. Raychel Ferguson was nine, as was Clare Roberts. Conor Mitchell was 15 and Lucy Crawford was 17 months old. And yesterday, a 14-year-long inquiry into the deaths of five children reached the damning conclusion that four of those five deaths were avoidable. Confirmed in that report by Mr Justice O'Hara was a reluctance amongst medical professionals to tell the truth about those children's deaths. The solicitor for Raychel's parents accuses officials of telling "lie after lie" and says the inquiry affected him even more than the Bloody Sunday tribunal.
