Mr. Bernard Gloster:

To give the specific number for this, if we do not take it back to the children in care, in August this year approximately 550 children out of 5,850 were awaiting allocation of a dedicated or specific social worker. As Ms Duggan said, they all have a mechanism for reviewing and monitoring. This is just children in care. As Ms Duggan said, the number is much higher when we go to all of our social work cases in terms of children at home.
