Labour Faces Criticism Over Grooming Gangs Investigation Delays and Promises
TL;DR
Home Office Minister Jess Phillips apologized for the delay in publishing a report on grooming gangs, which was delayed due to a short extension requested by Baroness Casey for her audit into child sexual abuse data. The government had initially dismissed calls for a national inquiry, opting for a targeted audit and local inquiries, with further investigations expected after the report's release.
