The Children's Bill provides the legislative framework to give effect to some of the rights of children that have yet to be fully realised, such as the right to family care; the right to be protected from maltreatment, abuse and neglect; and the right to social services. The Bill makes provision for services to support and strengthen families, and for the state to provide appropriate care to vulnerable children in need of protection.
The second part of the Bill is to be passed by Parliament soon. |
