legislators would find the handbook useful as they did oversight and that it would enhance their knowledge of children’s rights.

There are many sad illustrations of the inadequacy of facilities for children with all forms of disabilities. We do not have enough facilities in Gauteng, for example, to cater for children with disabilities and that opens them to all kinds of abuse.

While the committees have been vigilant in monitoring progress, it is envisaged that the handbook will provide MPs with information and tools that will help keep children, their rights, issues, needs and issues on the front burner inside and outside Parliament.
