The chief executive of a hospital under police investigation over alleged manipulation of cancer waiting times has resigned.
Dr Gordon Coutts, who has been on sick leave, said he would not return to Colchester Hospital University NHS Trust.
Earlier this month it emerged he was told of concerns surrounding waiting time manipulation in 2011.
Unison welcomed the decision and he said he should have gone "weeks ago".
The trust is facing three separate inquiries into the allegations.
