The new chair of the Essex Mental Health Independent Inquiry is asking people to have their say in what the inquiry will cover.
A major inquiry into up to 2,000 mental health deaths could be extended amid promises to grieving families that "lessons will be learnt".
"There is an element of ensuring that lessons are learnt not just for Essex but for other parts of the country who may look at what has gone on in Essex. "I would hope that we would be able to offer them some comfort so issues they are worried about are addressed and that others will not have the same concerns."
Baroness Lampard added the number of cases and amount of evidence under review by the inquiry was a "challenge" and it was important people had confidence in services.The Essex Mental Health Independent Inquiry was set up in January 2021.It was initially started to look into the deaths of around 1,500 people while they were a patient on an NHS mental health ward in Essex, or within three months of being discharged, between 2000 and 2020.
