Covid: Expert panel reports on NHS privatisation

By the Public Interest Law Centre

JANUARY 16, 2025

The Public Interest Law Centre’s latest report Forty years of failure: private sector contracting and its impact on the NHS provides timely and shocking findings with the ongoing Covid-19 Inquiry. 

For Module 3 of the Covid-19 Inquiry, we wanted to provide a current and historical analysis of the impact that outsourcing and privatisation has had on the NHS. On behalf of the Frontline Migrant Healthcare Workers Group (FMHWG), we asked the Inquiry to commission a report.  They refused our request.

 Together with FMHWG, we felt we had no choice but to commission a report to provide it as evidence to the Covid-19 public inquiry ourselves.

Join us and an expert panel to discuss the findings at the online launch on January 23rd at 6pm. Please register to reserve your spot and share the event here.

Speakers include Dr John Lister and Piers Marquis, UVW Union and IWGB Union.
