Keith Vaz: 'Fiona Woolf must decide whether to continue'

Victims' groups have told Home Office officials they are "unanimous" in the view that the head of an inquiry into historic child sex abuse should resign.

The inquiry would be a "dead duck" if Fiona Woolf remained chairwoman, Peter Saunders from National Association for People Abused in Childhood said.

The chairman of the Home Affairs Select Committee Keith Vaz said he was asking Fiona Woolf to reappear before the committee on Tuesday to give her response.

He said it was up to her to decide what was "in the best interests of the inquiry".
