Grooming gangs report findings set to be announced - BBC News - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c70601550rro

I would be grateful if you could provide me with the aggregated data of the following:

- the number of cases that you have been instructed to reopen

- the ethnicity of those identified as perpetrators in these cases within your policing area.

- the ethnicity of the victims of these cases.

- communication received from the Home Office or NCA regarding the reopening of these cases,  including the rationale for their identification, the means by which they are to be conducted once reopened, and any other communiques which have been received via letter, email or missive.

Response:

I can confirm that Dyfed-Powys Police does not hold the information requested, this is due to the fact that the NCA has not sent a request to Dyfed-Powys Police asking for such cases to be reopened.
