Closed Ban convicted child sex offenders from living near schools and playgrounds

Closed on

Too many convicted child sex offenders live in close proximity to schools and playgrounds. We believe this poses risks for children, and could increase the chance of reoffending. The Government should automatically ban convicted child sex offenders from living near schools and playgrounds.
