  do elders in england have to report abuse ?

  by looloo in

  2. child-abuse

  is it the law in england for elders to report child sex abuse to the police ?

  i think teachers and others in a position of trust have to .

  if not i dont understand why the elders themselves dont think it is wrong, if a brother confesed to the elders that he had murdered someone would they report that to the police ?

  Hi
  
  Someone said:
  
  "In the recent case in London, it is interesting that even though the elders in Bristol and at Bethel knew about the molestation, no action was taken to inform the authorities. It was the victims who brought things out into the open."
  
  But I don't think that's the case, if its the Porter case youre talking about. An elder I know told me that it was the elders in his congregation that told him to go to the police.
