Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether she has taken steps to implement the recommendation on Regional Care Co-operatives from the independent review of children’s social care by Josh MacAlister published in May 2022.
The Independent Review of Children’s Social Care’s final report was published in May 2022. The department will publish an ambitious and detailed Implementation Strategy early in 2023, setting out our plans for reforms. Our Implementation Strategy will also respond to the Competition Markets Authority report into children’s social care placements.
