Summary

The Attorney General must get statistics from criminal justice agencies for the years 1987 and 1988 on how often child abuse happened, including child sexual abuse, and publish a yearly summary of that information. The Attorney General must also change the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reporting program by January 1, 1989 at the latest so it records the victim’s age and the victim’s relationship to the offender for crimes that may involve child abuse. That change must stay in effect for at least 10 years after it is made, or longer if the Attorney General sets a later end date.
