Clause 5: Local Authority Plans for Adoption Services

Adoption and Children Bill – in a Public Bill Committee at on 21 November 2001.

Alert me about debates like this

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.
