A number of commentators have in past weeks spoken out, inaccurately, about the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse,
which I chair and the way in which the inquiry will conduct its work.
I’d like to correct those inaccuracies, specifically that the inquiry
relates to individuals of public prominence.
The inquiry is unprecedented in both size and scope. Let’s remember that it came about as a result of catastrophic failures of institutions to recognise and address the extent of child sexual abuse in England and Wales. Those failures destroyed the lives of children and left them growing up in a society that let them down
