Text
The Chair of the Committee is always very gallant in giving way. It strikes me that the approaches are different. Those who support the amendment are focusing on the child's perspective, and you are coming more from the victim's perspective. The Member can clarify that. What is his analysis of Victim Support supporting the rise of MACR to 14 and the adoption of a welfare-based approach, as opposed to forcing young people through the criminal justice system, as the best way to protect victims?
