Proceeding contribution from Lord Bates (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 4 February 2015. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Independent Panel Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse.
Independent Panel Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse
The noble Lord is absolutely right. There are two elements here—one is the emotional price and the other is a financial price which people pay in coming forward. We want them to come forward; we do not want anything to be a barrier, so the Home Secretary believes that it is absolutely critical that we have in place sufficient resource to be able to meet their needs and care for them when they do the courageous thing of coming forward and reliving those horrific experiences.
