What the petition asks
The Government should introduce ‘Skye’s Law’ to require that all convicted sex offenders are placed on the sex offenders register for life, not for ten years or less as is currently the case for certain offences.
This should help to cut down crimes against children and teenagers that face sexual abuse. More needs to be done and more needs to tackle this.
