He has also stated that the final report must (first) be sent to the Minister. Moreover, the Committee's archives are housed at the Ministry of Justice (see <a>the official act setting up the investigation <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lichtopsrm.com\/index.php\/commissie-hendriks-onder-controle-justitie\/\">https:\/\/www.lichtopsrm.com\/index.php\/commissie-hendriks-onder-controle-justitie\/<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Especially for a Ministry of Justice and Security, where justice and purity should be paramount, this is very detrimental to victims and ultimately also to (alleged) perpetrators. Therefore, let a good investigation quickly lead to a clear answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Van Meijeren motion (31 015 Child abuse, no. 234) that will be tabled on Tuesday calls again for a truly independent investigation. There must be light in vagueness, especially in obscure situations that cannot bear the light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So far the SGP remains silent on this point after earlier open contact with a member of parliament of the SGP after (the call in) an earlier letter to the House of Representatives from a group of 20 mental health care practitioners who as experts (mostly Christian) make a case for independent investigation into this horrible form of abuse and some of whom have (had) to do with victims of SRM. Only members of parliament from other parties have stuck their necks out so far; that surprises us greatly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some parallels with the story of the Good Samaritan come to mind; for this parable, besides bearing beautiful witness to the personal commitment of the outsider, contained above all a strong appeal to the faithful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>So as an SGP, give your vote to a group of seriously abused Dutch people:<\/strong> <strong>co-sign or fully support the Van Meijeren motion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rev. Gerard van der Schee, Almere<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">...and 20 ministers, pastors and leaders in the Christian Netherlands<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Open letter to the SGP urging them to vote for the motion on independent investigation on Tuesday, 16 November 2021...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"class_list":["post-865","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
