The national child sexual abuse inquiry will retain all of its investigations after an internal review concluded it should not be scaled back.
Chairwoman Professor Alexis Jay rejected suggestions that the remit of the probe is too broad to succeed – describing its scope as a “virtue”.
She said she plans to make recommendations in an interim report in 2018 and spoke of her determination to make “substantial progress” by 2020.
However, no final date has been given for what is the largest public inquiry ever established in the UK.
There have been suggestions that it could last for up to a decade.
