Under the Children Act 2004 local authorities have a statutory duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of all children in need of protection, including trafficked children.

Local authorities co-ordinate the arrangements for each looked after child to ensure they are safeguarded and have their welfare promoted.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 21/09/2015 15:49:19 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
