Recommendation 15

The Government must examine: a) how Operation Kenova has engaged with victims’ groups and families; b) whether Operation Kenova could be scaled up to deliver across the piece; and c) whether aspects of Operation Kenova’s approach could usefully be replicated or reinforced in any new legacy body or bodies, including its use of investigative governance and victims oversight mechanisms to provide independent scrutiny and build public confidence and the way in which it has fostered positive and trusting relationships with families.
