We are proud to operate in a country where no child is sent to prison. The removal of children from Scotland's prisons is a historic milestone in the creation of a justice system rooted in care, compassion, and the protection of our most vulnerable. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I find it incredible that after spending nearly £200 million on IICSA and making 20 recommendations to protect against child sexual abuse none have been implemented. And now the government is backtracking on mandatory reporting.
