Anyone living in the UK can call it bollocks.

"Low level" crime is essentially legalised because Police has been defunded and demoralised. If someone reports abuse, most likely it will be dismissed until the risk for reaching tabloid headline is too high. Then they'll need evidence, ideally case completely "solved", before they even start doing anything.

So that tells me the purpose for this law isn't protection of children, because the government couldn't care less about children welfare, as government is engaging themselves in abuse by running down the economy and forcing thousands of children to go hungry.
