Feetham prepares to consider ‘most difficult options’ for sex offenders

Gibraltar Minister for Justice Nigel Feetham announced that he is exploring “most difficult options” to safeguard children from sexual offenders during his opening address at the Gibraltar Association of Compliance Officers biennial conference.

Speaking under his responsibilities for financial services, Feetham linked the conference’s theme, “Beyond the Obvious,” to a broader discussion on how Gibraltar can strengthen its protective measures against child sexual exploitation.

Feetham’s remarks came as part of the conference’s agenda, which focuses on compliance and regulatory issues affecting the territory’s financial sector.

He did not detail specific measures, but indicated that the government is reviewing options that may involve stricter monitoring, enhanced reporting requirements, or other regulatory tools aimed at preventing sexual offences involving minors.

There were no additional statements from other officials or stakeholders at the time of the announcement.

Feetham’s comments reflect ongoing concerns in Gibraltar about child protection and the role of financial oversight in preventing sexual exploitation.

Further details on any policy changes or legislative proposals are expected to be released by the Ministry of Justice in the coming weeks.

For more information, the Gibraltar Chronicle and the Ministry of Justice website will provide updates as they become available.
