Looks very much like a cop out to me. I am considering my response
11 June 2019
Dear Mr
Thank you for your recent letter to the Cabinet Secretary for Justice. I have been asked to respond.
The Scottish Government unreservedly condemns the abhorrent crime of sexual abuse.
Experiences of sexual abuse in Scottish football will have a profound and long-lasting impact on those who were abused. Ensuring children can enjoy taking part in sport in a safe and secure environment – as well as giving parents’ confidence about the safety and wellbeing of their children – is a priority for the Scottish Government.
You may be aware that the Scottish FA announced the terms of reference for an independent review of non-recent sexual abuse allegations in Scottish football on 2 February 2017. The interim report was published on 26 July 2018, allowing the Scottish FA to address some of the recommendations before the final report is published when current on-going legal cases are concluded.
The Scottish Government will consider next steps when the final report is published.
Yours sincerely
Reagan Woodrow
