Alert for missing children — 7 signatures. Status: rejected.
Introduce UK-wide emergency mobile alerts for missing children. When police believe a missing child is at serious risk, an alert should be sent to phones in the relevant area with key information. This could quickly involve thousands of people in the search when every minute matters.
Introduce a UK-wide emergency mobile alert system for missing children. When a child is reported missing and police believe they may be at serious risk, an alert should be sent to mobile phones in the relevant area, providing key information to help the public identify and locate them. The first hours after a child goes missing can be crucial. Using emergency alerts could rapidly involve thousands of people in the search and potentially save lives.
