Business of the House

In November 2005 Jessica Randall was murdered by her father Andrew Randall, who lived in Kettering. She was just seven weeks old and she had been sexually abused and tortured before being killed. Her father has been sentenced to life in prison. A year ago the local safeguarding children board set up an investigation into the death and promised to publish its report. A year on, local people are still waiting for it. May we have a statement from the appropriate Minister next week, announcing new guidelines to local safeguarding children boards that such inquiries should be published with all possible speed and certainly should not take longer than 12 months?
