Trevor Sargent
Question:282 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for Health and Children the steps, if any, he will take to secure and provide the appropriate resources to the relevant agencies to ensure that a properly instituted, administered and financed framework of child care legislation is put in place in order that, against a backdrop of a coherent overall Government child care strategy, the implementation of mandatory reporting of child sex abuse may be considered as recommended in the report of the independent inquiry into matters relating to child sexual abuse; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
