Meetings Independent Secretariat - 5th & 12th December 2014

This is a message from the Secretariat for the Independent Child Sexual Abuse Inquiry. I would like to invite you to participate in some initial discussions on the work of the Inquiry.

 

The Secretariat and members of the Panel are undertaking a further two meetings with representatives of victims and survivors groups. These are part of a series of regionally based Listening meetings being held across the country with Panel members this month. More will then follow in the New Year.

 

The next two regional listening meetings will be held on:

 

Friday 5^th December 11.00-14.00 in central Bristol

(venue will be confirmed as part of your joining instructions)and

 

Friday 12th December 11.00-14.00 in central Manchester

(again we will confirm the venue with you as part of your joining instructions)

  

The purpose of these meetings is as follows: 

 

·      To provide information on the panel, its members and terms of reference 

·      To canvass views on how attendees, particularly survivors and victims group representatives would like the panel to engage with them and 

·      What you would like the panel to include in their considerations

 

The findings will be collated as part of the Inquiry Panels listening and engagement programme and fed back to the full panel.

 

The Secretariat would really welcome relevant individual / organisations / representative groups input at either of the above two meetings. Please do not worry if you are unable to make either of them, we will be running more and we will ensure your views are fed into.

If there any other groups and/or individuals that should be contacted for an invitation, to either these or future meetings, please email the Secretariat on the above email address.

 

By attending one of the above meetings you will be giving advice to the Secretariat and CSAinquiry regarding suggestions for how the inquiry should proceed and operate both now and in the future.

 

These meeting will not be for evidence giving.
