Young Offenders Act

It is possible that I have been asleep at the switch (it happens from time to time), but has anyone heard anything about changes to the YOA lately.

I know a bill was introduced to raise the age of consent to 16. Doesn't it make sense to lower the YOA to 16? (if this has been done and I have just not been paying attention, let me know).

It seems to me that if you are old enough to make decisions about your own body, surely you are old enough to know the consequences of your actions.
