Child Exploitation (CE) is a threat to children in Northern Ireland and the SBNI has a lead role to play in addressing this issue. This will be done through the mechanism of the CE Committee. This committee is a multi-professional group made up of senior representatives of the SBNI member and partner agencies. It will provide strategic guidance and direction to the SBNI on existing or emerging child protection and safeguarding issues in relation to child exploitation, namely: sexual, criminal and right-wing extremism.
