Important data uncovered by our inquiry. Across 125 local councils, 4,141 cases of child sexual exploitation are being monitored across Britain right now. Between 2018 and 2024, 100 councils reported 37,536 monitored cases - with victims as young as 8 years old.
This is the tip of the iceberg. Why? Many councils just do not have the reporting systems in place.
Of the 379 councils surveyed, just 70 had the means in place to report on “gang/group based CSE”.
Just nine councils were able to provide information on the ethnicity of perpetrators. Nine.
This patchwork, inconsistent, politically correct approach to data has been going on for decades.
And it all serves one purpose: to avoid uncomfortable truths.
We are calling for:
- A national data standard for all councils and police forces - enforce it
- Collection of ethnicity, nationality, immigration status and more
- Clear tracking of victim age, gender, ethnicity, and status in care
- Mandatory collection of data on group offending
- Transparency on how many reports were ignored or downplayed
If we can track potholes, school attendance and recycling bins - then we can track child rape.
This is a key test for our inquiry, and we will keep searching and pushing.
