Called for by Tony Lloyd, and chaired by Ann Coffey MP, the Coffey Inquiry is looking into the issue of child sexual exploitation.

The inquiry will speak to agencies, experts, victims and their families, as well as drawing together the range of reports published on specific cases and the broader issue of child sexual exploitation. Where possible, evidence will be heard in public. The inquiry will then report back with recommendations on how agencies can work better together to respond effectively to the issue.
