Street children 84. The Committee reiterates its concern over the rising number of children living or working in urban centres, notably in the capital city. These children are prime targets of organized childtrafficking rings; they are susceptible to abuse and are often charged with the crime of vagrancy and confined in vagrant homes and shelters that are not suitable for children. 85. The Committee recommends that policies to address the issue of increasing numbers of children living or working in the streets focus not only on the economic aspect, but deal with social protection issues targeting the abuse, exploitation, and violence against these children. The Committee also recommends that the State party take urgent measures to ensure access to health services, education, and shelter for children in the streets. Furthermore, the Committee recommends that the State party take all necessary measures with the families and the children themselves to assist children in the streets to return to their families. Sexual exploitation and sexual abuse 86. The Committee notes that the State party has adopted the regional strategy for seven countries of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) to combat child sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children. The Committee also notes that the State party has enacted the Suppression of Violence against Women and Children Act, 2000. Nevertheless, the Committee remains concerned that children continue to suffer sexual exploitation and abuse. 87. The Committee reiterates its previous recommendations to the State party to undertake a study to assess the scope, nature and causes of sexual abuse in order to develop an effective comprehensive strategy, and recommends that the State party, inter alia: (a) Develop, reform and strengthen appropriate legislative measures to address the issues of sexual abuse and sexual exploitation; (b) Take appropriate measures to ensure the prompt prosecution of perpetrators of sexual offences against children; (c) Ensure that child victims of sexual exploitation or abuse are not criminalized or penalized;
