I would like the government to introduce a law that prevents all convicted child sex offenders from using social media. It’s been proved time and time again that social media is used by paedophiles to target and groom vulnerable children.

Stop child sex offenders being able to live in the city that their victims live
I really would like child sex offenders to be forbidden from living or working in the area where their victims live. Their victims are trying to live on and grow up in a safe environment not worrying about bumping into their abuser.
Ban social media for under-16s to protect children
Ban social media access for under-16s. We think this could protect their mental health and childhood. Evidence shows it can cause harm, exposing children to bullying, addiction and inappropriate content. Follow Australia’s lead to prioritise their well-being. Social media can wait—childhood cannot.
Do not ban social media for under 16s
I think the government shouldn’t ban social media for under 16s. This is because for many young people social media is how they communicate with their friends. Some people view social media as a lifeline. A community, a supportive network. This is why I think the government shouldn’t ban it.
Reform bail, sentencing and sex offender registration for child sexual offences
Amend the Bail Act 1976 and PACE 1984 to create a presumption against bail for suspects of child sexual offences. Review sentencing guidelines to significantly increase custodial sentences. Amend the Sexual Offences Act 2003 to require a minimum 25-year sex offender registration period.
Explicitly exclude sex offenders from accessing children’s data under CWS Bill
We call on the government to add a category of exclusion to the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill to prevent child sex offenders from accessing the increased amount of data that could be collected stored and shared if the Bill becomes an Act amounting in some cases to a child’s daily whereabouts
