Reform youth reporting restrictions for serious violent and sexual offences — 7 signatures. Status: rejected.
We want the UK Government to change the law so that courts can remove anonymity protections for offenders under the age of 18 who are convicted of serious violent or sexual offences.
The current system prioritises rehabilitation, but we believe there should be a better balance between rehabilitation, public protection, victims' rights and accountability. We want courts to have the power to lift anonymity for under-18 offenders convicted of serious violent or sexual offences, while maintaining judicial oversight, fair trial rights and anonymity protections for minor offences.
