The Children's Commissioner is warning that money-saving measures will result in the need for a second Royal Commission into abuse in care.
Ministers removed the current inquiry's ability to investigate modern cases of abuse in April to save both cash and time.
Andrew Becroft has now written to the government and warned that it will be handed an incomplete report if the inquiry isn't given the ability to properly examine what's happening now.
Political reporter Katie Scotcher had this report.
