Rotherham child abuse: Martin Kimber, council chief exec, to step down

The chief executive of Rotherham Council is to step down following a report that exposed the scale of child sexual exploitation in the town.

Martin Kimber will leave the post in December, he has announced.

In a statement, he said wanted to reiterate his "sincere apology to those who were let down".

A report published last month said at least 1,400 children were sexually exploited from 1997-2013, mainly by men of Pakistani heritage.

Mr Kimber, who joined the authority in 2009, said: "I believe that new leadership will enable the town to recover more quickly from the events of the last two weeks, and strongly signal a new beginning at this critical time in its recovery."

Council leader Roger Stone quit following the publication of the report, which was commissioned by the council and detailed gang rapes, grooming, trafficking and other sexual exploitation on a wide scale.

Calls for further resignations have gathered momentum as the spotlight turned to others at the helm of local services during the time of the abuse

Rotherham abuse reports 'missing from archive'

The outgoing chief executive of Rotherham Council has said a number of crucial reports relating to the town's abuse scandal are not on the authority's archive.

The Jay report - which claimed as many as 1,400 children had been subjected to sexual exploitation - said reports written in 2002, 2003 and 2006 should have made it plain to senior figures what was going on in the town.

However, Martin Kimber - who announced his resignation last week - said that despite "extensive enquiries" he had been able to locate only a partial copy of the 2002 report, had not seen the 2003 report at all and saw the 2006 report "for the first time on Sunday".

Asked if there was a suggestion that the documents had been actively destroyed, Mr Kimber said: "I don't know they've actively been destroyed. All I can say is I cannot find them. They are not within the council's archive."
