Children and Adoption Bill

I do not know that particular charity, but it sounds excellent and I happy to commend it, given what my hon. Friend has just said about its work. When I mentioned the work of community family trusts to the Prime Minister on the Floor of the House on 7 December, he was full of praise for their work, but the projected budgets for them across the country have been released since then, and, as the hon. Member for Mid-Dorset and North Poole said, they are not good, which concerns me. When the Under-Secretary of State for Education and Skills, the hon. Member for Liverpool, Garston (Maria Eagle) and I debated fatherhood in Westminster Hall, she agreed to ask her officials to examine best practice around the world. The Government could do so much more.
