Calls for Sarah's Law on Isle of Man

A campaign's been launched hoping to bring Sarah's Law to the Isle of Man.

The law, which has been in place in England and Wales for over a decade, allows parents, carers and guardians to ask the police to tell them if someone has a criminal record for child sexual offences.

Last month government 'switched on' new sex offences legislation which brought the Island more in line with the UK, however Sarah's Law wasn't a part of those changes.

Kimberley Parker has now started a petition and a group on Facebook hoping to put pressure on the government to implement the law.

She's been speaking to Amy Griffiths:

Manx Radio has approached the Department of Home Affairs for a comment.

You can find the petition here and the Facebook group here.
