Report: Young offenders failed by prison systems
Young people detained in prisons and other secure establishments are being failed by the system, according to a report published on Thursday.
The Deputy Children's Commissioner for England says that mental health problems are not properly assessed and physical restraint is frequently used.
The report is based on a series of unannounced visits as our social affairs correspondent Alison Holt reports.
