Increased jail terms for child sex offenders

Additional Information

I would like the government to increase the jail terms handed out to child sex offenders. At present the jail terms are far too lenient for the destruction of an childs innocent life. Once a child sex offender has been sentenced they normally only serve half the mandatory term which makes the likelihood of re conviction upon release even higher .
