It simply feels wrong—indeed, inhumane—that children in care do not have a right to reasonable contact with their siblings in the way that they do with their parents, and that they are not always supported to stay in touch with their siblings. Their lives are tough enough; why are we making them tougher still, when this small change could make a real difference? I very much hope that Ministers can see their way to make some progress in this area. I beg to move.
