Mr Mangia accepted to continue to cooperate in the process being conducted by the Association’s organs in relation to the safeguarding aspect of the allegations levelled against him, which revolved around alleged inappropriate conversation.

The report will now be assessed by the Association’s Safeguarding Board, composed of independent professionals.
