Key takeaways from grooming gangs report

The report emphasizes the defects in data collection, which means that it is not possible to evaluate the scale of the problem.

In 2023, the group -based child refers to the complex and organized child abuse data set that defines about 700 registered crime of sexual exploitation, and says that this is the only number in group -based child sexual exploitation.

The report states that this crime is not likely to reflect the real scale of the problem, as it is insufficient to report this crime and suffers from confusing and inconsistent definitions.

The basic data gap emphasized by the report is the ethnic origin, which is defined as “terrible” and “great failure”.

He says that the ethnic origin of the perpetrators “moved away” and is still not recorded in two -thirds of the cases, which means that it is not possible to draw conclusions at the national level.

However, the report states that there is enough evidence of police data (Greater Manchester, South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire, one of the suspects for the sexual exploitation of group -based children (Greater Manchester, South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire) to show disproportionate men from Asian ethnic origin.

He adds that a significant number of Asian ethnic origins identified in local investigations and high -profile prosecutors throughout the country also require further examination.

The report states that more efforts are required to investigate why the perpetrators of the ethnic origin of Asia and Pakistan are represented in some regions.

On the other hand, the government said that it would make a formal requirement to conduct new research on the cultural and social driving forces of the issue as well as gathering both ethnicity and national data for cases of sexual abuse and exploitation of child sexual abuse and exploitation.

The investigation also contains a significant part of the live cases that are not in the UK or requesting asylum in the UK.

The government said that everyone who has been convicted of sexual crimes would be rejected and refugee status will be rejected.

Weekend, Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, the report in the UK and Wales should be a full national investigation of child sexual exploitation advised.

Previously, the Prime Minister had rejected a national investigation, claiming that the problems have already been examined. A seven -year investigation by Prof Alexis JayIt ended in 2022.

Instead, the government assigned the review of Barones Casey and announced plans for five local investigations in Oldham and four other areas that have not yet been named.

However, Barones Casey said that more local councils were not volunteers to establish their own investigations and that some organizations were reluctant to talk to their researchers “.

The report proposes both a national investigation as well as a national police operation in order to review the cases of non -activated child exploitation.

He says that this will be audited by an independent commission with full powers to force witnesses to achieve evidence and that time should be limited and targeted.

The investigation will review the failure of local services to determine the areas where the investigations need to be provoked and to coordinate a number of targeted local investigations.

The report also proposes the tightening of the law in England and Wales, so that adults who have sex with a child under 16 years of age always call the society to “see children as children”.

Although consent is 16, the child says that there are many examples in which cases of sexual exploitation of sexual exploitation were left to accusing or dropped less than the rape of a young man “in love” or “consent shows”.

In contrast, the Interior Minister Yette Cooper promised to change the law as the report suggested, and at the same time, the crown prosecution service and the police, to ensure that there were precautions for consent -based young relationships.

In addition, the child accepted the proposal to review the criminal convictions of the victims of sexual exploitation, so that while the rapists have Scot-Free, those who have been convicted for prostitution crimes will ignore their convictions and penalty records will be issued.

Taxis have previously been described as a way of sexual exploitation as a potential way for children to meet the victims of the perpetrators and to trigger different places.

Taxi licenses are given by local authorities, but the report indicates that some fields are much more strict in their processes to protect children.

For example, in Rotherham, Council required a 100% transition sign to protect tests for taxi cameras and drivers.

However, the report means that these efforts are blocked by more loose approach and legal gaps in other fields, which drivers can apply for a license anywhere in the country, but then operate in another field.

This requires the closure of the gap immediately and the introduction of more meticulous licensing standards.
