Will Scotland be included in the British child abuse conference and UK tribunal ?

Here are a couple of extraordinary events:

The first is a Spring Conference in 2015:  

On the 28th February and 1st March 2015, the British Constitution Group and UK Column will hold a joint conference at the Park Inn, Telford. As a major part of the conference, the BCG will hold a Grand Jury entitled “THE INSTITUTIONS OF THE STATE THAT SHOULD BE PROTECTING CHILDREN WERE NOT DOING SO”.

Two of its aims:

1 - to draw attention to the fact that Grand Juries are still a valid vehicle for determining whether if there is sufficient evidence to bring criminal proceedings. 

 

2 - to present to the public the evidence that institutions and individuals working within those institutions have not only systematically failed to protect children, but in some cases have been at least complicit in the abuse.

 The second event is the UK child sex abuse people`s tribunal.

Its mandate is to examine cases of Institutional Child Sex Abuse upon request from individuals or civil society organizations in the context of alleged failings on the part of Government and Statutory bodies both national and local. The People's Tribunal seeks to augment the Independent Panel Inquiry into Child Sex Abuse, originally set up by the Home Office of the UK Government.

It looks like the two groups have not been in communication with each other and it is difficult to figure out how all this is going to pan out at the moment; but surely institutional child sex abuse in Scotland should be on the agenda. So far the Scottish government has refused to undertake any inquiry.

These are interesting times.
