Baby P council chief loses appeal
Updated on 12 January 2009
The former children's services chief who lost her job over the Baby P tragedy lost an appeal against her sacking.
Sharon Shoesmith, 55, was dismissed without compensation from her senior position at Haringey Council in north London last month after a damning report into her department's failings.
She launched an attempt to overturn the decision to sack her but a panel of councillors rejected her appeal.
