Concerns about delayed historic child abuse inquiry.
A Jersey politician is raising concern in the States next week about the delayed Inquiry into historic child abuse.
Deputy Trevor Pitman wants to know when abuse victims can expect the investigation to start.
It's been postponed after the newly appointed chairman Sally Bradley QC had to withdraw due to ill-health.
Deputy Pitman will be asking the Chief Minister what progress has been made in finding a replacement.

There is a
story noted on the front page of "channelonline.tv"
It is not
possible to link in with any details, or to find any other reference to
the story on either this channel or on the BBC local channel or even in
the Jersey Evening Post. No matter how much the "establishment" in
Jersey may wish to keep many odious details of this obscene scandal
secret and no matter how much prevarication and delay they may throw
into the investigation, the story is "in the public domain" to a wider
audience than the 85,000 or so people who inhabit the island. Perhaps
the next step in the imposition of censorship and control is to ban
listening to or watching any news programmes, or reading any papers
emanating from outside the island. The Germans imposed such restrictions
between 1940 and 1945, and I am sure that if they thought that they
could get away with it the Jersey "authorities" would apply the same
controls now.
