The CLA has helped to produce an Early Day Motion that will be published in Parliament today, Thursday 28th February 2008. This motion was written by John Hemming MP, with help from us at the CLA.
The Care Leavers' Association has condemned failings in the child care system in Jersey that have led to one death and an ongoing investigation into widespread past abuse of children in care on the island.
Allegations of abuse in government institutions and organisations in Jersey, dating back to the 1960s, have prompted more than 90 people to ring a helpline set up by the NSPCC and Jersey Police.
