Former chair of UK child sexual abuse inquiry has been asked to set up independent safeguarding model
The former chair of the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse (IICSA) has warned she will quit a new role to develop independent safeguarding structures for the Church of England if there is any attempted interference.
The archbishops of Canterbury and York have hired Prof Alexis Jay after weeks of turmoil within the C of E over its safeguarding processes, involving sackings, resignations and a furious revolt at the church’s governing body, the General Synod, earlier this month.
