A key lawyer for the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse has become the latest figure to quit, it has been reported.

Tony Fisher, one of the first three barristers appointed to the inquiry, was said to be concerned by the inquiry’s “progress and direction”, BBC Newsnight said.

Mr Fisher did not comment on the suggestion that he had left the inquiry.
Asked about Mr Fisher’s departure, a spokesman for the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse said the inquiry had “a large legal team comprising a number of junior counsel, senior counsel and solicitors”.
