Safeguarding Children (Sexual Exploitation)

I want to leave the Minister with this thought. The young people who are found running cannabis factories all over Britain—they are often and mostly from Vietnam—are charged with criminal offences even though they are usually children. That is where the problem started, and it has continued that way. We need to examine the work of the Crown Prosecution Service, because as long as it goes on prosecuting children for an offence of which they are victims rather than perpetrators, the problem will not go away. I am very happy to engage in dialogue with the Minister, and I have lots of examples to give to her.
