New provisions on the disclosure of information
Adoption and Children Bill
10:10 am

Mr David Hinchliffe (Wakefield, Labour)
I welcome you, colleagues, to this first evidence session for the Adoption and Children Bill, and in particular I welcome our witnesses.
As you will appreciate, the time available is very constrained. We have an hour and a half in which—hopefully—to get through our business, with a further hour and a half for dealing with other witnesses. I will therefore be grateful if witnesses keep their answers crisp and brief, and I hope that my colleagues will ask their questions in a similar fashion.
