Proceeding contribution from Lord Ashley of Stoke (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 22 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Disabled Persons (Independent Living) Bill (HL)..
Disabled Persons (Independent Living) Bill [HL]
We have just heard two excellent speeches, which began the debate with great understanding and which I commend very warmly. I am glad to say that I accept the amendments in the name of the noble Baroness, Lady Darcy de Knayth. One of the greatest scandals of our social care system is that children can be robbed of their childhood by the failure of statutory services to provide the necessary services. These amendments deal with that issue, so I am happy to accept them.
