A report on child abuse in children's homes in north Wales in the 1970s, '80s and early '90s, is being published, 17 years after it was completed.

The Jillings report was suppressed in 1996 amid fears that it might lead to claims for compensation from victims, or to libel suits from adults named in the report.

Nick Higham reports.
