Child Abuse Tribunal

HC Deb 27 October 1999 vol 336 c902W

Ms Lawrence

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales when he expects to receive the report of the North Wales Child Abuse Tribunal of Inquiry. [96415]

Mr. Paul Murphy

The Tribunal's report has been delivered to my Department this afternoon. We will now consider the report and set in hand arrangements for its printing and presentation to Parliament at the earliest opportunity. At the same time I will present an executive summary of the document which is still in preparation by the Tribunal. I will present this summary in Welsh and in English. I expect all this work to be completed by January and I do not plan to make any further statement on the report and its findings until then.
