Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people is an important part of life for anyone working with children, as they and the organizations they work in have a duty to identify and protect any child who is suffering, or is likely to suffer, significant harm as a result of abuse or neglect. There is no single piece of legislation covering the rights of children; there are many laws, which are continually being reviewed, amended and updated. These are as follows:-

Children Act 1989
This Act put into law the utmost importance of the welfare of the child in any setting and defined the concept of Parental Responsibility, which set out the rights, duties and responsibilities of parents where the care of their children is concerned.

Children Act 2004
This Act is concerned with the provision of services to children with the aim of achieving the five main objectives of the Every Child Matters Green Paper. These are:-

1. Be healthy
2. Stay
