Question
Has the Welsh Government contacted all education authorities in Wales regarding Pakistani-heritage rape gangs which may have operated in their respective authority areas?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Education
We have a regular meeting with local authority education safeguarding leads where we discuss emerging issues and areas of concern. No concerns have been raised with us as part of our regular discussions. We encourage anyone with any information that concerns them to raise with the police or third sector organisations like Live Fear Free.
The next meeting with local authorities will be later this month and I have asked my officials to raise this at that meeting.
