[Nick Hobbs @Nickhobbs78]

Great to be at the Child Law Network meeting on #LawyersForChildren. Hearing from @C_Lightowler on what children have told us they need from lawyers, & from Olivia Gomes Bell on how lawyers can support traumatised young people.

[Children and Young People's Commissioner Scotland @CYPCS]

Children should not be Tasered, or to be threatened with a Taser by police. Tasers are potentially lethal and inflict severe pain which creates significant risk for children. 
Human rights bodies have long called on Scotland to ban the use of Tasers on children, highlighting the serious risk of physical and psychological harm such weapons pose.
