Founder of NAPAC says the UK should adopt a zero tolerance approach to people who abuse children.
Chief executive of National Association for People Abused in Childhood Peter Saunders says that Britain needs to have a complete revision in child protection policies and procedures.
Saunders adds it’s good to have a child protection ministry or a child protection dedicated police force, abusing children is a massive social problem.
A report, published by a group of British lawmakers working on the Rotherham exploitation scandal, said on Tuesday child protection systems in Britain must be reviewed.
11 British MPs are investigating allegations of child sex abuse in Rotherham.
Their report described Rotherham Council’s protection policies as “divorced from reality”, thus enabling abusers to continue their crime.
