A former consultant at the Southern Health Trust has told Northern Ireland's inquiry into Urology services that provision has been inadequate.

The inquiry, established in 2021, is examining the trust's handling of urology services prior to May 2020.

The work of former consultant Aidan O'Brien is at the centre of the hearing.

In his first appearance before the Inquiry, he said the service was never properly established.

Now retired, Mr Aidan O'Brien held various senior roles for almost 28 years.

Previously the inquiry heard that more than 1,000 patient's records were recalled - with hundreds of patients having received suboptimal care.
