§ Mr. AllenTo ask the Attorney-General what involvement his Department has had in the Broxtowe child sex abuse case; and if he will make a statement.

In cases such as this it is necessary that the jury should hear the evidence of the young children involved, both in chief examination and in any cross-examination. I welcome the successful use of a video link facility to minimise the distress which testifying inevitably causes to the victims of these abhorrent crimes.
