How was almost £11bn lost in fraud during the UK Covid pandemic? | BBC Newscast


Today, a report into almost £11 billion of Covid scheme fraud has found that most of it is beyond recovery.

Covid Counter Fraud Commissioner, Tom Hayhoe said that a lack of accountability, bad quality data and poor contracting during the pandemic had led to £10.9 billion being lost to fraud or error.

Simon Jack joins Adam to explain where the money’s gone and what, if anything, the government can do to recover it.

Plus, Baroness Amos, who is leading a review into maternity care in England, has said that she has seen “much worse” things than she had anticipated.

Her interim findings of a review launched by the Health Secretary last year, have found evidence of hungry mothers, dirty wards and poor care.

Social affairs correspondent Michael Buchanan and lawyer and campaigner Suzanne White join Adam.
