Claim children’s rights amendment would act as a ‘living memorial’

A CHILDREN’S rights amendment would be a ‘living memorial’ to the victims of abuse catalogued in the Ryan Report, the Children’s Rights Alliance will tell the Government today.

In its response to the horrific findings of the Ryan Report into years of clerical child abuse, the CRA will present a detailed list of recommendations to Minister for Children Barry Andrews today.

Among the main points are increased vetting and inspections, the establishment of a child death review committee, and a revamping of the Social Services Inspectorate.
