Synopsis
Clive Coleman explores the age of criminal responsibility. In most European countries this ranges from 12 to 18 years old, but in England, Wales and Northern Ireland 10-year-old children can be prosecuted. Clive asks if criminalising young people at such an early age is the best response to child crime.
