Professionals 'must not shirk from reporting child abuse cases'
The chief executive for the Foundation for Social Welfare Services, Joe Gerada, has urged professionals not to shirk from reporting child abuse cases, because the safety of children comes before confidentiality.
He also called for a Children’s Act that would update and consolidate legislation on children, also improving their protection.
Mr Gerada was replying to questions after many people complained last week that a sentence given in a rape case was too lenient.
Mr Gerada said he was in favour of a sex offenders register, adding that it should not be public but accessible to social agencies. He cautioned however against a false sense of security. In many cases, children were abused by people who would not be in the register and were the people closest to them, he said.

I did not get the point why R.F.I.D. chips should be implanted in our children. Could you kindly explain your idea, how tagging our children would be related to sex offenders?
What kids suppose to do with such implants?... to pay for bus according to their age exactly?
Well no wonder since that's exactly where we're heading!! We're simply being manipulated in these attitudes so that when the right time comes we can be presented with a solution in the form of R.F.I.D. chip implants in our children. Science fiction? It's already in existence & started to be implemented in some places (I invite you to do your research). Mark my words, it's only of when not if & we hell better say NO to it when it's proposed to us for the sake of our kids.
P.S. This chip is basically same we've just accepted to have in our passports, & this is only the start. Have your data scanned while walking around without your own knowledge!
