: The Ministry of Women, Family, and Community Development is finalising the amendments to the Child Act 2001, which will be tabled in Parliament this year.
“Currently, the Department of Child Development is still under the Social Welfare Department, so amendments are necessary regarding structure and division of duties, in addition to reviewing other related laws and tabling them in Parliament. Nancy, who is also the Member of Parliament for Santubong, was responding to the call by MCA Wanita Chief Wong You Fong yesterday for the Ministry to review and strengthen the Child Act and related legislation to ensure comprehensive protection for minors.
“The matter is in the drafting process, and as incidents occur, we are compelled to further amend the laws,“ she added.
