UK government's inquiry into decades-long child sexual abuse

02:26 Min

A series of social media posts by tech billionaire Elon Musk has put a decades-long child sexual abuse scandal under the spotlight in the United Kingdom, adding pressure on the Keir Starmer government to act. But an official who earlier led a seven-year probe into the matter believes another inquiry into the so-called 'grooming gangs' issue is not necessary. Professor Alexis Jay tells CNA authorities must instead start implementing existing recommendations. Stuart Smith reports from London.
