Health effects of infant feeding: Information for parents in leaflets and magazines in five European countries
Parents’ decisions about whether to breastfeed their infant, and when to introduce complementary foods, are important public health issues. Breastfeeding has beneficial health effects and is widely promoted. Leaflets and magazine articles on infant feeding were collected in 2005, in five European countries (England, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Spain), and screened for statements that link feeding behaviours to infant health outcomes. A total of 12…
Delivering a Scottish Energy Policy: Implications for the Civil Service
Energy is a sector of the economy that is subject to substantial and increasing government intervention across the developed world, primarily to improve security of energy supply and to tackle climate change. In Scotland, the actual and potential strength of the energy sector offers opportunities not just for meeting these objectives but for contributing substantially to economic growth. Energy, and renewable energy in particular, has therefore b…
Regional equity through community development planning: The Metro Detroit Regional Investment Initiative

Researching Child Victims — Some Methodological Difficulties
Research into child victims has been overshadowed by concern about the physical and sexual abuse of children. Children who are victims of other crimes have difficulty in attaining ‘victim status’ and have been overlooked by academics and policy makers. ‘Indirect child victims’, affected by witnessing or living with the impact of crimes against others, are more hidden still even though their experience may be no less serious.

The Victim's Charter: A New Deal for Child Victims
Help and support for victims of crime have become key platforms of the government's criminal justice policy in recent years. The Victim's Charter , published by the government in 1990, is the first official statement on how victims of crime should be treated and what they are entitled to expect. It addresses, in particular, the three issues which have caused most concern during the last decade: the unsympathetic treatment of victims by the police…
Child witnesses and the legal process
Both the Children Act 1989 and the Criminal Justice Act 1991 anticipate the appearance of children in court as witnesses. However, there is a marked difference in the support given to such children under the civil and criminal processes. In civil child protection proceedings the guardian ad litem plays an important role in protecting the welfare of the child both before and during a court hearing. Although some changes have been made in the crimi…
