Rev. Martin Smyth

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department when the Sex Offences review will report; when the consultation period will commence; and when consequent legislation will be introduced. [109091]

The Sex Offences Review hopes to report to Ministers in the spring. Its proposals will be published for consultation in the summer. The timing of any subsequent legislation has yet to be decided.
