Children and Adoption Bill [HL]

I am very interested in my noble friend’s answer to the questions raised by the noble Earl, Lord Listowel. It is not the first time that this issue has been raised in the context of children’s safety. We have heard in the past of insufficient and inadequate supervision which has led to children not being safe in contact centres. It is almost always due to lack of investment; there are not enough of them and they are not staffed adequately. I would like the Government’s assurance that that situation will be remedied as a result of the Bill.
