Proceeding contribution from Baroness Barker (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Children and Adoption Bill [HL].


Children and Adoption Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am very grateful to the noble Earl, Lord Howe, for returning to this subject, not least because it enables me again to ask the Minister a question that I asked in Grand Committee and I believe has not yet been answered. The service is provided not only to individuals seeking to adopt but is a service that is provided to others including local authorities. Can the Minister explain whether the department, in its costings and reaching its figure of £240,000, has separated out the service to individuals from the service that will be more widely used?
