I was in the Chamber and am only getting in on this committee now. Apologies if I ask questions that have already been asked. I have a question for each of the group representatives.

I ask the Children's Rights Alliance regarding the individual complaints mechanism. We have heard over and over the matters raised at committee and it seems to be one of the main weaknesses in the general scheme of the Bill. Many witnesses have said such a mechanism is vital if it is to be effective, which I can understand. I see in Children's Rights Alliance's statement that it would like to see a number of remedies, including compensation. Will representatives of the organisation elaborate on the remedies it would like to see?
