Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 June 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

That lends itself very neatly to Amendment 99, to which I have added my name, which would define a national offer for care leavers. Therefore, one could use one amendment to try to embrace and pull together the issues where the disparities are; then, under Amendment 99, pull it together into a much clearer exposition of what needs to happen for it to work and what the standards are. As other noble Lords have said, clearly there is—and should be—room for local variation according to local needs and expertise, etcetera. This seems a sensible way to proceed.
