A plan which will see Charlie Gard "inevitably" die shortly after being moved to a hospice and having life-support treatment withdrawn has been approved by a High Court Judge.

Mr Justice Francis had set a timetable to govern the final period of the little boy's life.

Doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital and Charlie's parents Chris Gard and Connie Yates disagreed over how long he should receive life-support treatment.

Medics said he should move to a hospice soon and life-support treatment should end shortly after his arrival but his parents wanted more time with him and said he should receive life-support treatment for a number of days.

Today (July 27), the judge made public details of an order which will result in Charlie dying shortly after moving to a hospice.

The High Court Judge had said that yesterday (July 27), that Great Ormond Street's plan would take effect if agreement could not be reached by noon today (July 27).

His order released indicated that agreement has not been reached.
