There will not be a fatal accident inquiry (FAI) into the death of a three-year-old girl from Dunbartonshire following an E. coli outbreak in 2016.
The Crown Office had previously said South Lanarkshire-based Errington Cheese would not face prosecution over the child’s death.
The firm’s Dunsyre Blue was named the most likely source of the outbreak.
The Crown Office said it had considered “all the relevant matters” before ruling out an FAI.
A total of 26 cases of the same strain of E. coli O157 were identified between July and September 2016 as a result of the outbreak, which left 17 people requiring hospital treatment.
