Liz Kendall MP, Labour’s Shadow Social Care Minister, responding to reported failings at the Whitechapel Haven in London, said:

“This report should have been immediately published.

"The women who have been affected have a right to know who is responsible for the unacceptable failings at Whitechapel Haven and that they are properly held to account.

"Complete transparency is also essential to ensure similar services for rape victims learn the lessons from what has happened to make sure these appalling mistakes never happen again.”
