Offences against Children: Inquiries
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make it her policy to share the findings from the national inquiry into grooming gangs with her counterparts in the devolved administrations.
- Answer
-
Whilst child protection is fully devolved in the UK and policing devolved except for Wales, all parts of the UK must work together to protect children and bring perpetrators to justice and we are engaging with devolved administrations as part of our response to Baroness Casey’s recommendations.
We expect any relevant findings to be shared with devolved administrations to support a comprehensive approach across the UK. All parts of the UK must work together to protect children and bring perpetrators to justice. We will set out further details on the establishment of the national inquiry in due course and how this may interact with the responsibilities of devolved administrations.
