Thinking Anglicans

Still no answers to safeguarding questions

TA readers may recall that in 2023 and 2024, letters were sent to both the archbishops by Richard Scorer, on behalf of his Client ‘Gilo’, asking questions about the involvement of William Nye, members of the National Safeguarding Team, and others in a meeting with Ecclesiastical Insurance held in 2016. To date, no substantive reply has been received.

Yesterday, a third letter was sent. This time it has been sent to the Church Commissioners, since the Archbishops’ Council has now failed repeatedly to answer. No doubt the topic will yet again by raised at the General Synod next month.

All of this has been rehearsed on Thinking Anglicans before. Here are some of the earlier articles:

Curious as to what or when safeguarding failures become of interest to the Charity Commission?

Have you confused the Charity Commision with the Church Commissioners? The letter is addressed to the latter and on a quick reading the Charity Commission is not mentioned in it.
