Non-verbal children and vulnerable adults often cannot report harm. Make CCTV mandatory in care homes and private nurseries, with access for families when abuse, neglect, or malpractice is suspected.","additional_details":"Every year, reports emerge of abuse, neglect, and mistreatment in care settings. While the vast majority of care workers provide excellent care, a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check only shows known concerns at the time of employment, it cannot prevent future abuse.\r\n\r\nThis is particularly important for non-verbal children, autistic individuals, people with learning disabilities, and vulnerable adults who may be unable to report abuse or explain what has happened to them.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":13,"created_at":"2026-06-02T13:13:13.898Z","updated_at":"2026-07-03T14:32:04.699Z","rejected_at":"2026-07-03T14:31:56.151Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-06-02T14:42:10.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"duplicate","details":"You may wish to sign this petition which calls for a similar action: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/761111 "},"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[],"topics":[]}}}
