The Children at Risk in Ireland organisation has called on the Government to implement all of the recommendations of the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Child Protection.

In its annual report, CARI highlights child abuse statistics in Ireland and the small percentage of child abuse cases which actually proceed to court or a conviction.

Speaking on RTÉ Radio's Morning Ireland, CARI's clinical director Majella Ryan said the legal system needs to facilitate children.
