David P.
started this petition to
Ministry of Justice

We are campaigning to try and get the law changed in this country so that convicted Paedophiles and Sex Offenders have to be in the chemical castration program before release into society.


The program includes:
- Administration of an anti androgen injection every three months which blocks the effects of testosterone,…

virtually eliminating the libido and sexual function and has been shown to reduce aggressive behaviour.


- Taking SSRI anti depressants which are known to inhibit compulsive behaviours and aggression too.


- Regular CBT therapy from a court appointed counsellor to help change their thought processes.


In the countries where this law is already in place (Russia, Poland, Moldova and some US states), this program has been very effective in reducing recividation rates from as high as 97% reoffending without treatment to as low as only 3% with the treatment.


So by helping to make it law you could be saving thousands of potential victims from rape or abuse.

Please SIGN and SHARE this petition and help us to get to our target of 100,000 signatures.
