On 11 October 2012, Dame Janet Smith DBE was appointed by the BBC to lead an inquiry into the Jimmy Savile sexual abuse charges. The report, titled The Dame Janet Smith Review Report, was published on 25 February 2016.

In her investifation, Smith called for evidence from people who were the subject of inappropriate sexual conduct by Savile on BBC premises, or on location for the BBC; people who knew of or suspected such conduct; anyone who raised concerns about Savile's conduct within the BBC; people who worked for or with Savile on programmes at the BBC between about 1964 and 2007, or who were familiar with "the culture or practices of the BBC during that time insofar as they may have been relevant to preventing or enabling the sexual abuse of children, young people or teenagers"; and people who held senior positions at the BBC who may have relevant information.
