CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATION COMMAND Indicators - FGM maybe about to happen… Family from a practicing community; Extended holiday, particularly to a practicing country; Child is going to “become a woman” or have a “special celebration”; Child may begin to display a behavioural change……

CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATION COMMAND Indicators - FGM has already taken place… Girl may spend long periods of time away from the classroom associated with bladder or menstrual problems; The child requiring to be excused from physical exercise; Prolonged absences from School plus a noticeable behaviour change…..

CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATION COMMAND THE LAW  Prohibition of Female Circumcision Act 1985  Penalty – 5 years imprisonment  Female Genital Mutilation Act 2003  Penalty – 14 years imprisonment

CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATION COMMAND FGM Act 2003  Offence to commit FGM [S1]  Offence to assist a girl to commit FGM on herself [S2]  Offence for someone in the UK to arrange or assist FGM outside of UK even if carried out by a person who isn’t a UK national or resident [S3]  Any act done outside UK by UK National or resident [S4]

CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATION COMMAND The Law – the technical bits! NO AGE LIMIT - ‘Girl = woman’ Defence = If it is a surgical operation necessary for physical / mental health Mental health does not include belief that FGM is required as a matter of custom or ritual ‘Designer Vagina’

CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATION COMMAND There have been NO prosecutions under FGM legislation in the UK…

CHILD ABUSE INVESTIGATION COMMAND Some Barriers to Reporting…  Children are unlikely to ‘tell on their parents’  Many from loving / caring families  Once in a lifetime event  Honour Based  Community Acceptance / Marriage  Victim’s maybe too young to remember  Language / Immigration status  Unaware of the law  Lack of understanding of health implications
