The Royal Commission of Inquiry into Abuse in Care is looking into Gloriavale, with an investigation into the community possible. It comes amid revelations Gloriavale leaders forced a 13-year-old girl to sit in a room with a man who allegedly groomed her, because their versions of events did not match up. On Wednesday, a spokeswoman for the Royal Commission of Inquiry into Abuse in Care, established in 2018, confirmed it had Gloriavale on its radar. The inquiry's work to date has included meeting with representatives of the Gloriavale Leavers’ Support Trust. The family left Gloriavale about 10 months ago as they felt the community was making the 13-year-old’s life “miserable”.
