The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 28 February 2025 to Question 30996, what powers the Ministers from the Department for Education have been delegated in relation to implementing IICSA.

Answered by Jess Phillips

The recommendations of the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (the Inquiry) covered a broad range of issues and departmental responsibilities, including reforms to the child protection system, improving data, awareness-raising and supporting victims and survivors.

Responding to child sexual abuse requires a cross-Government effort and the Home Office is working collaboratively with departments across Government, including the Department for Education, to take action on the findings and recommendations of the Inquiry.
