Family of premature baby deeply distressed by report

The family of the premature baby who died last week when her mother gave birth in an ambulance having been refused treatment at Monaghan General Hospital, have reacted angrily to the publication of an independent report into her death.

The report by an independent review panel, which was published last night, found that no attempt should have been made to transfer the baby's mother between Monaghan General and Cavan Hospital.
