McCann has said she feels the chances of her daughter Maddie
being found are improving (PA) |
Maddie went missing from a hotel room in the Algarve, Portugal while on
a family holiday in 2007. Despite raising significant public support and
hiring private detectives, her parents have never found her.
Asking the government to provide more support for families dealing with
a missing child, Kate said: 'To be left in the dark when your child is
missing and at risk is unbearable ... Many people have been worn down by
this process because it's absolutely relentless and exhausting.'
However, she said she feels more positive about the possibility of
Maddie being tracked after Scotland Yard was put on the case, saying she
felt 'the chances of her being found are improving'.
The
Daily Telegraph previously reported a team of 30 detectives could be put
on the case, costing millions of pounds.
She
was joined in her calls for help by the mother of Luke Durbin, who
disappeared five years ago after a night out in Ipswich, and Sarah
Godwin, whose son went missing on the way to work in New Zealand in
1992.
