Mandatory Reporting of Child Abuse

​

  1. The government released the Mandatory Reporting of Child Abuse Bill on 2 June 2023. The bill requires certain professionals to report suspected serious child abuse cases and provide protection for the reporters. As a person who professes to practice as, or publishes his or her name as, a clinical psychologist, is covered by this bill.

  2. HKADCP suggests members study the bill carefully to ensure safe practice. The bill can be accessed at https://www.gld.gov.hk/egazette/pdf/20232722/es32023272219.pdf for your attention.
