Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 June 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

We are prioritising fostering in our reform of children’s social care, as evidenced by the Chancellor’s recent announcement of an additional £25 million investment in foster care over two years, beginning in 2026-27. That is additional to the £15 million we are investing in fostering during this financial year. This will bring benefits to thousands of fostered children.
