Children and Families Bill

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

I know that the Minister is very much aware of the issues facing kinship carers—in fact, I think that he was one of the sponsors of the Kinship Carers (Parental Responsibility Agreements)

Bill, which I introduced a couple of years ago—but does he acknowledge that the Family Rights Group says that clauses 1 and 6 need to be removed or amended because they place real obstacles in the way of kinship carers? Are the Government looking at that?
