Abstract

In November 2023, we responded to the Government's consultation on the introduction of Mandatory Reporting of Child Sexual Abuse. This followed our response in August 2023 to the Government's call for evidence on Mandatory Reporting. We were disappointed to see an absence of acknowledgement in the most recent consultation of the concerns we expressed in the call for evidence.

Below is a short summary of the key points from both responses, with the full consultation response available to download at the bottom of the page.
