Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 May 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

I can, I hope, assure the noble Lord that, through the implementation of Clause 2, we will update statutory guidance, working closely with the multiagency sectors, and that this will include guidance on the representation of family hubs in the multiagency safeguarding arrangements by virtue of the local authority role. I agree with him that what is happening in family hubs has to be included in a discussion about safeguarding arrangements if they are to be effective in their safeguarding of children. We need to ensure that that happens.
