Make it a legal requirement for individuals to report child sexual abuse
The previous government proposed making it a mandatory duty for those working or volunteering with children to report child sexual abuse. We would like the Government to make it a legal requirement for all individuals to report child sexual abuse.
We believe that this will help protect vulnerable innocent children from child sex abusers and those who enable or actively protect them, by introducing requirements for everyone to report child sexual abuse.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
