Janners oral examination [1] by Justice Pauffley at the Leicestershire Inquiry aka the Kirkwood Inquiry in 1992.

Janners written evidence [2] at the Kirkwood Inquiry.

They are also available at the minute from Leicestershire County Council FOI publication site  [4]

Janners evidence was never released in the Kirkwood Report in a questionable decision by Kirkwood.

I have not read the documents yet, so any comments would be useful.

[5] 2016 Apr 4 Mirror Lord Janner paedophile inquiry chief in ‘cover-up deal with MP’ http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/lord-janner-paedophile-inquiry-chief-7689805#ICID=sharebar_facebook Bombshell papers show Lord Janner was quizzed about his ­relationship with a boy during a private hearing of a 1992 probe into abuse at children’s homes.

The head of a public inquiry colluded with Greville Janner by allowing him to cover up child sex claims, ­bombshell documents reveal.

Previously unseen papers show Janner was quizzed about his ­ relationship with a boy during a private hearing of a 1992 probe into abuse at children’s homes.

At the time he told reporters he did not face that line of questioning and transcripts show inquiry chief Andrew Kirkwood QC gave the lies his blessing.

The inquiry followed the trial of Frank Beck, a ­sadistic paedophile who ran children’s homes in Leicestershire.

During that case a witness accused Janner of abusing him at the age of 14.

Janner told Kirkwood: “I would like to say to them [the Press] – because they have already been asking me – that the questions had nothing to do with the allegations made by Beck [victim’s name redacted] against me.

The papers, released by Leicestershire County Council at the Mirror’s request, also reveal Janner gave a statement admitting the boy travelled with him on a lecture tour to Scotland, stayed overnight at his home and at a hotel.

“May I have your permission to say that?”

The judge, who has since died, replied: “Of course, Mr Janner.”

The papers, released by Leicestershire County Council at the Mirror’s request, also reveal Janner gave a statement admitting the boy travelled with him on a lecture tour to Scotland, stayed overnight at his home and at a hotel.

At the end of Janner’s evidence, Kirkwood told the former Leicester West MP he would not publish the abuse allegations in his final report.

Janner told him this was “much appreciated”.

His statement will be examined by the national inquiry into child abuse, led by Justice Lowell Goddard.

Janner was charged with 22 offences dating back to the 1960s, but died last year, aged 87.

His family deny the allegations.
