This session will focus on the practical implications of an increasing trend towards corporate and gross negligence manslaughter investigations including:
- Relationship with independent and public inquiries.
- Interactions with internal processes including disciplinary and other internal investigations.
- Implications for inquest preparation.

We will also cover the legal framework and look to previous prosecutions and ongoing investigations for lessons about what differentiates those circumstances from other patient deaths.
