Icelandic child abuse evidence method to be piloted in England
Authorities in England are looking at a system used in Iceland which could make it easier for children who are the victims of abuse, to give evidence in court.
In Iceland, children are questioned by a trained therapist instead of directly by lawyers in court.
British officials have visited the country, and pilot programmes are due to start in London and Durham.
