Fifa ethics, 大象传媒 Music Day, Methodist abuse

Fifa ethics, 大象传媒 Music Day, and Methodist abuse are some of the stories presented by Edward Stourton.

In what has been a devastating week for FIFA, Edward Stourton looks at the role of ethics committees. What influence can ethics committees have within organisations? Philippa Foster Back from Institute of Business Ethics and Bishop David Walker, Bishop of Manchester discuss.

Lord Patten talks to Edward about the report he has written for the Vatican on it's media operations and their lack of response to his suggestions.

Dorian Jones reports on the forthcoming Turkish general election which sees three of the four major parties selecting candidates from the country's Armenian minority for the first time in decades.

Edward speaks to Emma Deakin from Arrowe Park Hospital in Wirral, who helps young patients by easing their anxiety through music and play as part of 大象传媒's Music Day season.

Dozens of priceless artefacts, stolen from Churches across England and Wales, have been recovered as part of a major police investigation which has only just been revealed to the public. As Trevor Barnes reports, officers are now appealing for help from the public to track them down.

The Methodist Church in the UK made an "unreserved apology" this week after an independent investigation revealed evidence of abuse. What can the church and other religious institutions now learn from its publication? Rev Dr Liz Smith co-chair of the Joint Safeguarding Liaison Group, Alana Lawrence who is former Chair of Minister and Clergy Sexual Abuse Survivors and Eileen Shearer, Head of Safeguarding and Practice Development at Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service discuss.
