Church of England approves compensation for sexual abuse survivors | The Guardian | Operation Phobos | Scoop.it

The Church of England has approved an initial compensation scheme for survivors of sexual abuse that could reach a multimillion-pound sum as it braces itself for the findings of an independent inquiry to be published next week.

The C of E’s executive body, the Archbishops’ Council, unanimously agreed to draw down reserves for the first payouts to survivors as part of an “interim pilot scheme”.

'Those told of abuse must report it,' says Workington MP - News & Star

'Those told of abuse must report it,' says Workington MP - News & Star | Operation Phobos | Scoop.it

ANY person in a position of responsibility who is told about the sexual abuse of a child should report it to the police, says Workington MP Mark Jenkinson.

The Swarm's insight:

 

"The politician spoke out after the News & Star reported on the cases of two Allerdale men whose abusers were clergymen - one with the Catholic Church and the other with the Church of England - and both were allowed to continue working after they confessed their paedophilia. 

 

Neither was reported to the police by their church bosses." - Phil Coleman: Chief Reporter | News & Star.
