Part of 2. 2. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children – in the Senedd at 2:57 pm on 20 September 2017.
I’ve got a working group looking at this. As well as the fostering in Wales framework, our work around promoting stable placements includes a review of special guardianship orders, investment in a new model of adoption support through the National Adoption Service, and a task and finish group on children’s residential care. I think this is one of the areas that I don’t think should be political in any way, where we have the interests of young people at heart. If the Member has any positive contributions to make, I would be very happy to receive them and feed them into the working group as we move forward.
