The Limitation (Childhood Abuse) (Scotland) Bill
The Scottish Parliament has voted to remove the three year limit on survivors of childhood abuse seeking civil damages in court. The Limitation (Childhood Abuse) (Scotland) Bill will mean that cases arising from childhood abuse on or after 26 September 1964 will no longer face the barrier of the limitation period. The Bill passed Stage 3 on 22 June 2017.
