Offenders from England and Wales are travelling overseas to commit "extensive abuse" of children, including in eastern Asia and Africa, said the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA).
It said civil orders, such as travel restrictions, are rarely placed on offenders to stop them visiting other countries where poverty and corruption have left children vulnerable.
Police forces are also often not aware of Section 72 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003, which allows residents of England and Wales accused of sexually abusing children abroad to be prosecuted in the UK, the report found.
Comment: These politicians are more concerned about maintaining their doomsday cult beliefs about carbon emissions than they are about the people they serve and their local economies. Seems they are quite intent on driving California into the ground.
