LANCASHIRE CHILDREN AND SARAH'S LAW

Motion Text

That this House is appalled that Lancashire children were the victims of more than 500 sex attacks in 2009; notes that some 508 offences were recorded in the county against people aged under 18; further notes with concern that 102 of the victims were aged 10 or younger, seven were aged three, and two were just two years old; urges the Home Secretary to extend Sarah's Law across the country without delay; and backs the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children's call for the police to publish a detailed breakdown of these offences every year.
