A Jersey Anglican Church group has asked the Archbishop of Canterbury to make public a report into protecting young vulnerable people in the church.
In 2008 a woman, known as HG, made a formal complaint about abuse by a Jersey churchwarden.
The inquiry into the handling of the complaint recommended no disciplinary action should be taken against any Jersey Anglican clergy member.
The report has been kept confidential on legal advice.
HG said its publication could cause her harm and threatened legal action.
The renewed calls for it to be made public have been made in a letter from Senator Sir Philip Bailhache, the Lay Chair of the Deanery, to the Most Reverend Justin Welby, who said the matter was “gravely affecting Jersey”.
