Question to the Home Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government, following the Baroness Casey Review, when they expect to issue guidance to police forces about mandatory collection and collation of crime and ethnicity data.
This question was answered on 3rd July 2025
On Monday 16 June 2025 the Home Secretary set out the Government’s response to Baroness Casey’s National Audit on Group-based Child Sexual Exploitation in England and Wales, accepting all 12 recommendations it made.
That includes making it a requirement for the police to collect ethnicity and nationality data in every case of child sexual exploitation and abuse. We will announce further details on this measure in due course.
