Proceeding contribution from Baroness Morris of Bolton (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 16 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Children and Young Persons Bill [HL].


Children and Young Persons Bill [HL]

Again, in the interests of speeding things up, I will just say that we very much support the amendments. It is vital that a child is visited by their main social worker or lead professional—the person who knows and understands them—wherever possible. Many problems that young people face are because that has been lacking. As the noble Baroness, Lady Meacher, said, the principle of continuity is so important. As I said, we therefore very much support the amendments.
