Children and Families Bill

Proceeding contribution from Bill Esterson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 February 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Children and Families Bill.

The Minister makes an important point about the role of the wider family in caring for vulnerable children and for children generally, but the most important people are children themselves, and putting them at the centre is the critical role for the legislation and anything we do in the House. Does he take on board that that should always come first even when it may be in conflict with the rights of others in the family or other adults?
