Ministers pressed on grooming gangs inquiry and support for victims
The Government said it is implementing Baroness Casey’s 12 recommendations, reopening closed cases through a £38m police operation and setting up a statutory inquiry due by 2029, while MPs pushed for faster justice, stronger evidence powers, consistent ethnicity recording, deportations and better victim support; ministers promised legislation on ethnicity data but did not commit to a public inquiry.
