I presume the Deputy is referring to the proposed legislation to put Children First: National Guidance for the Protection and Welfare of Children on a statutory footing. The policy framework to implement the decision by Government to put Children First on a statutory footing is currently being finalised and the matter raised by the Deputy will be considered as part of this process.
