A delegation of children's charities and victims' groups is due to meet the Minister for Children today to discuss the fallout from the final report of the Child Abuse Commission.

The groups will be calling for a complete overhaul of child protection services and a comprehensive inspection system for foster homes and institutions that care for children.

They also want the Government to set a date for a long-promised referendum on children's rights.

The groups claim Ireland's laws are still woefully inadequate and another child abuse scandal is possible unless decisive action is taken.
