Jane Grant, Chief Executive of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, said: “It is of utmost importance that our patients and their families have confidence in our services and that we are able to assure them that high standards of care are being provided within a suitable environment.
“Since the hospitals opened in 2015, we have taken a number of measures to improve the hospital environment for our most vulnerable patients and further action is underway.
“Questions, however, have continued to be been raised about the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital and the Royal Hospital for Children.
“We therefore will support the Public Inquiry announced today and will make a full contribution to this, in addition to the external and internal reviews of the hospital that are ongoing.”
