DEEP CLEAN

A Sky News investigation suggests the controversial 'deep clean' of hospitals up and down the country is proving less successful than the Government claims.
Deep cleans are over budget

The survey of 51 National Health Service trusts reveals a fifth have failed to meet deadlines.

The £57m programme was due to be completed by all hospitals by the end of March.

But only 37% of trusts that spoke to Sky News said they were "on track" with cleaning.

It comes as the Government announced that specialist inspection teams from the Healthcare Commission would be sent into hospitals to make sure their cleaning standards are stringent.
