Early day motion 38

CHILD ABUSE AND THE OFFICIAL SECRETS ACT 1989
Session: 2015-16
Date tabled: 27.05.2015
Primary sponsor: Mann, John
Sponsors:
Bottomley, Peter
McDonnell, John 

That this House believes that justice for the survivors of child abuse should be a priority for the Government; notes that concerns have been raised by current and former police officers and special branch officers that by coming forward with evidence related to child abuse they could be prosecuted under the Official Secrets Act 1989; and calls on the Government to introduce legislation to remove the threat of prosecution for anyone who has reasonable cause to believe that the information, document or article they disclose is relevant to an official investigation of, or inquiry into, historic child abuse.
