	Human Rights Victory for Rapists and Paedophiles By James Kirkup The Telegraph June 20, 2011 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/8576328/Human-rights-victory-for-rapists-and-paedophiles.html A Supreme Court ruling has forced the Government reluctantly to draw up new rules allowing serious sex offenders put on the register for life to have their place on the list reconsidered. The Home Office plans were opposed by child protection campaigners and Conservative MPs, who said some offenders could never be considered completely “safe”. The new rules were drawn up because the Supreme Court ruled that automatic lifetime inclusion on the register breached the Human Rights Act. David Cameron said the ruling was “offensive,” but ministers say they have no choice but to comply by changing the rules on the register.
