“This review makes for shocking reading and exposes vile behaviour and attitudes that undermine the work of policing across the country - including here in West Yorkshire.
“We share Louise Casey’s ambition to protect women and girls from harm and want to work with her to identify how to achieve that in our region and beyond.
“There should be zero tolerance for violence against women and girls and my message to anybody affected is to come forward and report it - because you will be heard.”
