There's a right way and a wrong way to do everything.

The right way

From a London Assembly press release:

Recommendations include:

• The Mayor must take a visible lead in tackling FGM. The delivery of the Police and Crime Plan must demonstrate this commitment and drive a multi-agency response to FGM.

• A pan-London campaign to raise awareness of the real dangers of FGM, signposting women and girls to the support they require.

• Communities affected by FGM should be engaged to raise awareness, strengthen community-based prevention work and provide training for professionals.

• The Mayor must support the provision of bespoke training for London’s frontline practitioners.

• Support should be given to the police, health, social care and education services, voluntary organisations and communities.

The wrong way

From Sky News:

Schoolgirls at risk of female genital mutilation would be given mandatory medical examinations to tackle the barbaric practice, under UKIP proposals. The children would be subjected to the routine checks at their schools every year as part of the party’s proposals to prosecute parents who allow their girls to be subjected to FGM.

They would also have to be checked after returning from foreign holidays, under measures unveiled as part of UKIP’s “Integration Agenda”. The party also says the Crown Prosecution Service should work to a “presumption of prosecution” of any parent whose daughter has suffered FGM. The failure to report an incident of FGM would also be made a criminal offence.

Mandatory checks are already law in France, which has had far greater success prosecuting FGM cases. Although it has been illegal in the UK since 1987, there have been no successful prosecutions.

Ms Parker said: “All these measures to combat this despicable crime are already law in France, a country that has a far, far better record than us on FGM. Not only have they proven effective both in protecting girls in France from FGM, they also help provide essential evidence to mount prosecutions where FGM has taken place. It is time the United Kingdom caught up.”
