Baroness Butler-Sloss (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 June 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

This may be a rather silly question, but in my experience of the Atkinson secure accommodation unit, every child needs at least two carers. There are even children who need three. I wonder how a children’s residential care home will manage a child deprived of liberty. It will be an extreme case and the child will be unbelievably difficult to look after.
