<p>The welfare of the young people who used Kids Company services continues to be
of primary concern and we are working closely with local authorities to make sure
they have access to the support and services they require. 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. Under these
arrangements, looked after children are provided with access to all their needs be
they in relation to education, accommodation, psychological or health. Local authorities
co-ordinate the arrangements for each looked after child to ensure they are safeguarded
and have their welfare promoted.</p>
