Humza Yousaf urged to sack NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde board amid homicide probe
13.11.2023 - 17:03 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar has said a failure to sack the leadership of Scotland’s largest health board would be allowing the “suspects to walk the crime scene” amid a corporate homicide investigation.
First Minister Humza Yousaf faces fresh calls to remove the chief executives of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC) after the health board was named as a suspect in the criminal investigation into the deaths of a number of patients at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital (QEUH).
Among those affected was 10-year-old Milly Main, who died in 2017 after contracting an infection at the Royal Hospital for Children’s cancer ward on the campus of the QEUH in Glasgow.
In its update to affected families, the health board said there was no indication a “final view” had been formed by prosecutors.
In a press conference on Monday, Milly’s mother Kimberly Darroch said she had been unable to “celebrate” her daughter’s life due to the ongoing trauma surrounding her death.
Speaking alongside Sarwar in Glasgow, she made an emotional plea for the leadership to step aside, adding: “I don’t think you should be able to do the job you’re doing with this investigation ongoing. I think the Government should step in and either suspend or sack them.
“I’ve never been able to celebrate Milly’s life like I should be. Anytime I think of Milly I think of all of the pain that day caused and continues to cause.
“I would like this to come to an end sooner rather than later so that I can think of Milly and celebrate her life, the good times that we had, instead of right now. I feel that pain the day I lost her every single day because of all of this.”
Sarwar urged the Scottish Government to “do the right thing” as he told journalists failing
