�� Recognition that so long as the resources of those obligated to combat sexual exploitation are minuscule when compared to those who have an investment in its continuance little progress will be made. �� An agreed European protocol, within current human rights legislation, for enabling police checks on potential employees with responsibilities for children. �� The establishment of children's ombudsmen across Europe. They would be responsible both directly to children and for ensuring that their interests were being served by other agencies. Education and Prevention �� A statutory right of children and young people to sex education and media awareness. �� A definition of 'safe sex' within health education and awareness campaigns which includes ‘non-coercion'. �� The need to link with campaigns for the right to financial independence for young people, and exploring how denial of access to benefits, limits on housing benefit, contraction of student grants makes sections of young people more vulnerable to sexual exploitation. . �� Exploration of the particular vulnerabilities of young people in/leaving care, and developing appropriate support services using both the Children Act and Community Care. This may involve shifting definitions of who qualifies for 'child protection', in the case of care leavers, since they can fall through a definitional net. �� The development of high quality alternative forms of care for children and young people who cannot (or do not want to) live safely with their parents (in line with Article 3 of the UN convention) �� Area Child Protection Committees to receive bi-annual reports from local vice/crime squads on activities relating to sexual exploitation. Support and Advocacy �� A statutory right to support in cases of abuse, legal cases pending not withstanding. PAGE 81 chapter 14
PAGE 82 chapter 14 �� Training of workers in the issue of sexual exploitation. �� An emphasis on peer education and advocacy, enabling young people who have escaped sexual exploitation to become supporters of those still involved. �� Resourcing of experimental and innovative projects which seek to intervene before young people are recruited, and once they have been. �� Developing various forms of supported accommodation with emotional, resettlement and educational support for care leavers, and evaluating which schemes are most successful in meeting young peoples needs.
