Home Secretary Theresa May is expected to tell MPs later that she will consult victims before appointing a new chair for the historical child abuse inquiry.
Fiona Woolf resigned on Friday, saying victims did not have confidence in her.
She had faced pressure to quit over her social links to ex-Home Secretary Lord Brittan, whose handling of abuse claims in the 1980s has been questioned.
Her predecessor resigned four months ago, also after a row over her links with members of the establishment.
Commons Leader William Hague has said the inquiry will continue its work while a new chairman is sought.
Labour has said the candidate must have the confidence of victims' groups, while Lib Dem peer Lord Carlile said they should have experience of dealing with child abuse and child protection.
The inquiry, announced in July, was set up to look at how public bodies and other institutions handled claims of child sex abuse from the 1970s to the present day.
It comes after claims over many years about paedophiles in powerful places and alleged establishment attempts to cover up their actions.
The first chair, Baroness Butler-Sloss, stepped down a week after being appointed when concerns were raised about her late brother being attorney general during the 1980s.
Mrs May will make a statement to Parliament later about how the inquiry will proceed following Mrs Woolf's resignation.
The home secretary is also expected to say she will seek the approval of MPs before the person takes up the role.
Mrs Woolf's appointment was criticised by victims after it emerged she had social links to former Home Secretary Lord Brittan, who may be called to give evidence during the inquiry.
He denies any wrongdoing in the way a "dossier" on alleged high-profile paedophiles was handled.
Mrs Woolf, the Lord Mayor of London, disclosed she had lived in the same street as Lord Brittan and had dinner with him five times between 2008 and 2012 - but said he was not a "close associate".
She drew further criticism when Home Affairs Select Committee chairman Keith Vaz revealed a letter she sent to the committee about her relationship with the Conservative peer was re-written seven times until the final version gave a "sense of greater detachment".
