SAATCHI GALLERY

Early day motion 472, tabled 21 March 2001 by Helen Clark (Labour). Signed by 7 members.

That this House condemns the Saatchi Gallery's I Am A Camera, photographic exhibition of naked children and supports the campaign led by the News of the World newspaper, parents and police chiefs to highlight the dangers that this 'art exhibition' has to the well being and safety of children in this country; deplores reports that the FreshPetals paedophile website has directed its visitors to the BBC News website to view the pictures online; and believes that as child welfare issues and the real dangers posed by paedophiles to children in this country have never been greater an 'exhibition' of this nature is unacceptable and should be closed.

Signatures by party: Labour 4, Conservative 2, Liberal Democrat 1.
