‘It is now several months since the Immigration Act became law. It contained one crucial amendment, that the UK should take an unspecified number of unaccompanied child refugees from Europe. So far very little seems to have happened.
Save the Children had identified that there were a large number of unaccompanied child refugees in Europe; their most recent estimate was 95,000. Equally alarming was the fact that some 10,000 are believed to have disappeared. These young people are clearly in danger, liable to be dragged into criminality, to be trafficked and forced into prostitution. The need to find them safety is urgent.’
