Department's carrying out joint assessment
Government departments are formulating a new strategy to combat sexual offending in the Island.
Questions were raised over the adequacy of the response in the House of Keys yesterday, as politicians in the UK debate how to tackle the growing problem.
The Chief Constable's Annual Report this year revealed a rise in the reporting of current and historic sexual abuse.
But Home Affairs member Alex Allinson MHK said there were still 'gaps' in policing and helping the victims.
He told colleagues departments were carrying out a joint assessment:
Government issues clarification on proposed changes to public housing policy
DHSC 'considering policy options' as Hyperbaric Chamber calls for more funding
'Really special', says charity as historic furniture returns to Island
Government 'supporting' Strix after announcement of Ramsey factory closure
