Proceeding contribution from Anthony Steen (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 23 June 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Safeguarding Children (Sexual Exploitation).


Safeguarding Children (Sexual Exploitation)

Swaying on the side of a child being over 18 means that they are sent back, without regard to what will happen to them when they get back. Often, they are trafficked again. The advantage for someone under 18 is that they should be cared for, but the Border Agency is not the right agency to deal with them.
