EQUAL PROTECTION FROM ASSAULT IS EVERY CHILD'S HUMAN RIGHT

12.39.03pm GMT Wed 15th Nov 2006

equal protection for children

I support the Children Are Unbeatable! Alliance, campaigning for the UK to satisfy human rights obligations by modernising the law on assault to afford children the same protection as adults. Hitting children is as unacceptable as hitting anyone else and should be equally unlawful. The Alliance is the broadest campaign coalition ever assembled on a children's issue, bringing together more than 400 organisations and many more individuals.
