What Price Childhood in Scotland Today?

That the Parliament notes with anger and dismay the sentence of 100 hours community payback for a 19-year-old who, at the age of 16, had sexual intercourse with a 13-year-old, committing an offence under sections 28 and 29 of the Sexual Offences (Scotland) Act 2009; believes that this sentence does not reflect the views of civic Scotland and shows no regard for the protection of young women in Scotland in 2013; understands why the victim's father is unable to comprehend what it considers such an atrocious sentence that does not even begin to reflect the people's values and that illustrates well the growing gap between Scotland's people and the Scottish Government when its policies do not ensure meaningful protection of young people in the community; further expresses concern that the sheriff could not require the offender to be placed on the Sex Offenders' Register, causing alarm to parents in the local neighbourhoods, and believes that everyone in Scotland needs to have special concern about Facebook, which it understands was a means of contact between the offender and the young girl concerned.
