NORTHERN IRELAND CHILDREN'S COMMISSIONER

25 February 20098 Signatures

Motion Text

That this House welcomes the fact that the Northern Ireland Children's Commissioner lost her recent appeal against the law allowing parents to use smacking as a form of discipline; criticises her waste of public money in pursuit of an ideologically driven legal campaign; and calls on the Commissioner to cease attempting to criminalise loving, caring parents.
