Clause 5: Local Authority Plans for Adoption Services
Adoption and Children Bill
Public Bill Committees, 21 November 2001
We positively welcome the greater transparency regarding the descriptions of information about plans drawn up by Local Authorities. This move could potentially empower and inform those considering adoption who would benefit from insight into a Local Authority's provisions. It is hoped that this, too, would be referenced by suggestions that plans for services should include collaboration with Voluntary Adoption Agencies.
