Part of the debate – in the Scottish Parliament at 3:02 pm on 10 December 2024.
I am grateful to the minister for taking an intervention following that very important point regarding missing persons.
The minister will also recall that, at stage 1, I raised the question of safeguarding of children. Indeed, the minister kindly wrote to me, making reference to the Children (Scotland) Act 2020, and she talked about provisions being commenced in 2025 to cover the points that I had raised.
Is the minister able to say in what part of 2025 the Government is considering rolling out those provisions, which are important for safeguarding children?
