Answer

In November, we announced a national ambition to halve the rates of stillbirths, neonatal and maternal deaths and brain injuries occurring during or soon after birth by 2030. Since then progress has included the launch of the ‘Spotlight on Maternity’ initiative and distribution of a £2.24 million capital fund for safety equipment.
