UK MPs want to see child abuse inquiry extended


The British Government is being urged to extend its inquiry into child sexual abuse to cover Northern Ireland and Scotland, not just England and Wales.


The Home Secretary has also come under fire from MPs for not releasing salary details of the newly appointed chair of the inquiry, New Zealand High Court Judge, Lowell Goddard.


Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee Keith Vaz says they are pleased with Justice Goddard's appointment, but believe the time permitted for this investigation means that it could be expanded to other areas.
