A disappointing article - given the data around c/s. Is there or should there be a working party around this in a very specific way?

I did manage to read the full HSJ article yesterday but can no longer do so. https://www.hsj.co.uk/quality-and-performance/cqc-backtracks-on-normal-births/7023321.article I couldn't find anything on the CQC web site, but perhaps I was looking in the wrong place.
