Details of an independent inquiry into the alleged cover-up of sex abuse by a senior Church of England cleric have been announced by the Archbishop of York.

Dr John Sentamu said that the inquiry into the Church’s failure to deal with allegations against the Rev Robert Waddington, former Dean of Manchester, would be chaired by Judge Sally Cahill, QC.

An investigation by The Times and The Australian newspaper revealed in May that the York diocese received reports of abuse by Mr Waddington three times between 1999 and 2004.
