Proceeding contribution from Ed Balls (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 February 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Child Protection.
Child Protection
I think I made it clear that UN figures are for child deaths, and they have fallen by 30 per cent. We need to make sure that we protect children from all kinds of death where there is a non-accidental injury. That matters whether we are dealing with safety in the home, transport deaths or child deaths. I also said that any child death that happens because of abuse or injury by a parent or carer is wrong. That is why we are debating these matters.
