Tougher sentencing for sex abusers and more help and support for victims and survivors

Additional Information

To provide new tougher sentencing for criminals that carry out any form of abuse, ie mainly -sexual (rape). It's a lifetime sentence for a victim (survivor), punishments should reflect the devastation that any of these terrible crimes cause. A change in this must be done. Much better support and facilities are desperately needed for victims of these awful crimes. There is not enough.
