Judicial investigation into 14 deaths and 24 brain injuries in crèches since 2017

Over the past five years, the court investigated 14 deaths and 24 brain injuries in infants and toddlers in crèches. This is apparent from information provided to the Childcare Inquiry Committee. Only in two cases was someone convicted. Part of the number of deaths and brain injuries is caused by cot death, reports Open VLD Member of Parliament Freya Saeys (Open VLD), but according to her this does not fully cover the load: “I see, for example, a death in 2019 where they have not seen a health care inspection to date. .”
