- My Name is Christine Kenny. My Niece Amy Fitzpatrick went missing in Spain on 1st January 2008. Myself, my Brother Christopher (Amy's dad), my husband Billy, my family, My friends Maura & Joe Martin, Sandra & Alan O'Brien, Claudine Hope & psychic Joe Power www.miss.ie,
are backing the campaign in an appeal to The European Parliament to get a European alert system in place for missing children
At the moment when a child goes missing there is no alert system in place to help to find the child
Since Amy went missing it has given us such determination. We will not stop until this system is put in place and all children now and children in the future will have this protection
We are asking all parents, Grand-parents, extended family, friends and there children to sign our petition it only takes a couple of seconds to sign http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/A...

Alert gives hope to the missing
http://www.independent.ie/opinion/ed...
Thursday April 16 2009
The creation of an American-style system for tracing missing or kidnapped children is, of course, welcome. In today's Ireland, children go missing more frequently than many people realise.
The initiative for the new 'Amber Alert' system began with the aunt of the missing Dublin teenager Amy Fitzpatrick when she presented a 20,000-signature petition to the EU Commission calling for such a system to be set up here and throughout Europe.
Amy disappeared in Spain last year.
Hopefully, enhanced co-operation between gardai, the media and various organisations will bring an end to the phenomenon of child disappearances from state care.
Some 401 children have gone missing while in state care in the last eight years.
It is an uncomfortable fact that child trafficking is a reality in this country and the Government has been accused in the past of failing to put measures in place to prevent it.
Vulnerable children are living in unsuitable accommodation with insufficient staff.
Almost one in five foreign children placed in HSE care go missing and are never found.
The disappearance of a child -- any child -- is heartbreaking, but there are lesser degrees of abuse too.
A recent UNICEF report ranked Ireland last out of 25 OECD countries for early childhood services.
It found that this country meets only one of 10 benchmarks setting minimum standards for protecting the rights of children.
The new early warning system for missing children is a reassuring development and, hopefully, will be followed by other badly needed initiatives.

Amber Alert system for missing children
An Amber Alert system is to be set-up for missing children following a recommendation from the Garda Inspectorate.
Kathleen O'Toole said that when a child goes missing in high-risk circumstances it is vital that the gardaí can immediately get the assistance of key networks in alerting the community.
She said that much could be done to establish the system without incurring additional cost.

The ISPCC has welcomed the move but added that we also need to ensure that other mechanisms that are operational across Europe are used here, including the introduction of the 116 000 telephone number.
The number has been in place for more than two years in a number of European countries but not in Ireland.
The ISPCC says Ireland falls short of adequate policies, procedures and services that deal with missing children.
The Amber Alert system was first introduced in the US and is named after nine-year-old Amber Hagerman who was abducted from her Texas home in 1995. It also stands for America's Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response.
In the US the alerts are broadcast on radio and television news bulletins as well as on road signs and usually contain a description of the child and of their alleged abductor.

Update
We have been told the body that was found in La Cala is of a Male but we are waiting on official confirmation on this.
Finally After all the hard work collecting signatures all over the country the govnerment are implementing an alert system for missing children
We would like to thank the Garda Inspectorate and her staff for the speed in which they got this report finished and we would also like to thank The Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform Mr Dermot Ahern for implementing this so quickly.
