Northern Ireland's Chief Scientific Adviser loses court bid to block a disciplinary investigation into allegations he failed to tell the family of a nine-year-old girl who died about 'failings' in her treatment

Northern Ireland's Chief Scientific Adviser has lost a High Court bid to block a disciplinary investigation into allegations he failed to tell the family of a nine-year-old girl who died about "failings" in her treatment.

A public inquiry investigating the deaths of Claire and four other children from the condition found Prof Young did not inform Claire's parents - Alan and Jennifer Roberts - about failings in her care and gave "misleading" evidence to the original inquest into her death. Prof Young referred himself to the General Medical Council shortly after the inquiry's report was published and the regulator initially decided not to waive its usual five-year time limit for fitness to practise proceedings.
