General Scheme of Childcare (Amendment) Bill 2017: Discussion (Resumed)
9:00 am
Ms Éimear Fisher:
There is a head in the general scheme - I am not sure what the number is - which provides for any information to be brought by the GAL to the court. If it would assist the court and the child for the views of the foster carer to be taken into account, that can be provided to the court through the GAL.
