THE second phase of the Scottish child abuse inquiry will further
investigate controversial children’s homes run by a Catholic Order of
nuns. It is examining historical allegations of the abuse of children in
care and has been taking statements from witnesses since last spring.
Officials said the first part of the second phase starting in autumn will focus on homes run by the Daughters of Charity of St Vincent de Paul, such as Smyllum Park in Lanark and Bellevue House in Rutherglen. The head of the religious order which ran the controversial children’s homes has already described allegations of abuse as a “mystery”.
