Scotland’s health secretary has announced “significant progress” towards establishing a public inquiry into the disgraced NHS surgeon Professor Sam Eljamel.
In a ministerial statement to Holyrood on Thursday, Neil Gray said he had appointed chairs to both the public inquiry and the independent clinical reviews into the former NHS Tayside doctor.
It comes after campaigners criticised the Scottish Government for a lack of progress on the inquiry, which was announced in September.
Eljamel worked in the NHS from 1995 until he was suspended in 2013 for his actions. He is currently believed to be operating in Libya.
