New reforms to support victims of child sexual abuse

Kennedys are delighted to be hosting the next webinar in our public sector series taking place on Thursday 13 March.

This will be an informative session where we will discuss the latest reforms aimed at supporting victims of child sexual abuse. We will consider the government response to the consultation on limitation law in child sexual abuse cases in England and Wales that was published on 5 February 2025, the potential impact on future claims and offer a comparison with the law and limitation of abuse claims in Scotland.

The team will cover:

• The reversal of the burden of proof.
• Law of apologies.
• Additional measures.
• Limitation in Scotland.
