answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2015 answer text <p>Our statutory guidance, ‘Planning Transition to Adulthood for Care Leavers<em>’</em> sets out local authorities’ responsibilities when care leavers are placed out of area. In these circumstances, the placing local authority must remain in close contact and take responsibility for planning the young person’s transition to adulthood. The guidance explains that local authorities should work together with relevant agencies such as health and adult social care services when planning a young person’s transition to adulthood.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Where a care leaver is placed in custody, pathway planning must continue. The young person must be visited on a regular basis by a personal adviser from the placing authority. It is good practice for the personal adviser to carry out a review of the pathway plan at least a month before release in order to give sufficient time for pre-release planning. This should include plans for the care leaver to move into suitable accommodation, with the right kind of support, on release from custody.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>A copy of the guidance is available at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/397649/CA1989_Transitions_guidance.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/397649/CA1989_Transitions_guidance.pdf</a></p><p> </p> answering member constituency Crewe and Nantwich answering member printed Edward Timpson question first answered 22/07/2015 11:46:55 answering member 1605 label Biography information for Edward Timpson
