A role for South Yorkshire Police in the Child Abuse Inquiry?

Yesterday I received an email from the Child Abuse Inquiry which appears to indicate that the Inquiry is using South Yorkshire Police to investigate allegations against public figures.

Does anyone have information about whether the Child Abuse Inquiry is using South Yorkshire Police exclusively? Or selectively? If the latter, which criteria are used to decide when South Yorkshire or another force is used?

Given that South Yorkshire Police were responsible for failures at the heart of the Rotherham Child Abuse scandal it seems to me to be perverse for South Yorkshire Police (seemingly) to have been given a significant role by the Child Abuse Inquiry.

If anyone has information on this issue please leave a comment below or contact me on Twitter:
