Crossbencher Lord Alton of Liverpool said schools had an important role to play in ensuring young children are aware of the risks of social networking sites and the "harmful impacts" their online behaviour can have on others.
Lib Dem Lord Storey then asked to what extent the North Liverpool Community Justice Centre had met its intended objectives, what plans the government had for this centre, and what improvements it would envisage to this model if it were to be further replicated.
He said in Lord Justice Taylor's report into the 1989 Hillsborough disaster in which 96 Liverpool football fans died, the fact the supporters were standing was not highlighted as a cause of fatalities.
