What the petition asks
No agencies or statutory bodies have been held to account.We need to know why these children were not supported and protected and who failed in their duty and why.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
There is already an inquiry into the failure to protect children, so we're not sure what you'd like the UK Government or Parliament to do.
The Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse began in 2015.
The inquiry is looking at the extent to which institutions have failed to protect children from sexual abuse. It is independent from the Government.
