The Inquiry (“SCAI”) can be contacted:

by post at PO Box 24202, Edinburgh, EH3 1JN

by email for general inquiries at information@childabuseinquiry.scot

Once we have drafted your witness statement we will come and meet with you again to go through it with you. We call this meeting a statement review.

The Inquiry team will work with you to make sure you are content with your statement. You will be able to take things out or add things, or make other changes, at your statement review.

Once you are content with the statement we will ask you to sign it.

Your witness statement is evidence to the Inquiry.

For some people their witness statement will be the whole of their evidence to the Inquiry.

You can discuss all of this with your Witness Support Officer. It is their job to help you understand this.

The Inquiry would like to hear from you. You can get in touch by post, email or phone - Contact Us.

If you think you have documents of interest to the Inquiry, please let us know. You can contact us about this by email at information@childabuseinquiry.scot. We will discuss with you what documents you have and whether we need to see them.

Witness statements referred to and/or read in during hearings will normally be published on the website as will transcripts of the oral evidence given by witnesses. The Chair’s case study findings, any interim reports and her final report and recommendations will also be published.

Some parts of these documents may be blacked out (“redacted”) , for example to protect the identities of those who are entitled to anonymity.
