Dr. Kenneth Burns:

While enabling legislation to indicate clearly the direct and indirect methods to hear from children is essential, we also need to look at the courts infrastructure. FLAC's contribution outlined the situation in Dolphin House. Members might also like to go and look at the old Bridewell on Chancery Street. These are the most sensitive possible proceedings in the courts but one has them in very dated buildings which are surrounded by razor wire. It is not conducive to hearing from children. One can enact legislation, but we must also invest in the physical infrastructure.
