Here's the actual Early Day Motion being put before the House of Commons.
It has 7 signatories to date, so it's important to make all our MP's aware of the situation and get them to sign this motion.

Hello Ivor,
Thanks for the link:

| JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES AND CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE | 15.07.02 | |
| Clark/Helen |
| That this House congratulates the BBC on its showing of the Panorama programme which exposes the lack of an appropriate child protection policy amongst Jehovah's Witnesses, since it is the organisation's policy to consider congregation members accused of child sexual abuse innocent unless there are two witnesses, even in the case of listed paedophiles; notes that previous attempts on the part of victims of this abuse to obtain official recognition of the issues involved have been unsuccessful; and calls upon the Government to institute an immediate inquiry into the circumstances of the past and present cases of such abuse |
