<p>Professor Alexis Jay's report into Child Sexual Exploitation in Rotherham between
1997 and 2013 is an account of the failures by Rotherham Council - and by the police
and other organisations - to protect vulnerable children. It is highlighted that in
Rotherham, the majority of known perpetrators were of Pakistani heritage though it
does not comment on the religious beliefs of any of the perpetrators.</p><p> </p><p>Child
sexual exploitation is not exclusive to any single culture, community, race or religion.
It happens in all areas of the country and can take many forms. We are clear that
political or cultural sensitivities must never get in the way of preventing and uncovering
child abuse. We are committed to dealing with this Criminal activity and there has
never any excuse for failing to bring it's perpetrators to justice.</p><p> </p>
