Background

We think the Government must do everything they can to discourage those who watch child sexual abuse material by changing the law to introduce tougher punishments.

Additional details

We think the Government should introduce legislation to impose stricter minimum sentences for offenders, along with the punitive confiscation of assets, permanent listing on the sex offenders register and compulsory attendance of empathy training courses in prison.
