Maternity care failings 'shame our society', damning report findspublished at 08:52 BST
A rapid review by Baroness Valerie Amos into NHS maternity services in England found too many women were not being "listened to, heard or believed", with racism and discrimination "embedded throughout the system".
Speaking in the House of Commons, Health Secretary James Murray - who will be fielding questions from Kuenssberg this morning - said the report painted a "bleak picture" of failings across maternity services.
Speaking to BBC Radio 4's Today programme on Tuesday, Baroness Amos said the system was "not fit for the now and it's not fit for the future".
"We need national standards to frame maternity and neonatal care against which we can then test how trusts are doing, how care is being delivered," she added.
