Abstract
First paragraph: The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Incorporation) (Scotland) Act 2024 is something of a disappointment in the light of the ambitious plans that preceded it. However, its impact could be increased immeasurably by passing a new child law statute, codifying all the existing child law legislation.
