“The learning review into the case of family C in Glasgow has recently been published. The report on what was commonly known as the beastie house evidences the multitude of institutional failures that resulted in children enduring a decade of degrading, violent and sexual abuse at the hands of adults who were supposed to be caring for them. The heinous crimes that were committed are truly awful and heartbreaking. That that was able to happen in modern Scotland, where we have a multitude of children’s policies and strategies that are supposed to protect children and recognise their rights, is a disgrace. I recognise that the First Minister has given an apology to a scrum of journalists, but that is not equivalent to giving a statement to Parliament. What does he have to say to victims and to Parliament about those serious failings?”
