In 2005 an outbreak of the Escherichia coli O157 bacterium occurred in South Wales. It was the largest outbreak of E. coli O157 in Wales and the second largest in the UK; 157 cases were identified in the outbreak.
The National Assembly for Wales set up the Inquiry following a report by a cross-party committee of Assembly Members. The Public Inquiry into the outbreak was established under The Inquiries Act 2005 and was led by Professor Hugh Pennington. The report of the inquiry was published on 19 March 2009.
