To ask Her Majesty's Government, in relation to their proposals to extend the power
for local authorities to outsource their children's social work functions including
child protection, what assessment has been made of (1) the risks to children and young
people, (2) the risks to the impartiality and integrity of statutory decision-making
and interventions, and (3) the risks of conflicts of interest arising for third-party
providers that bid for social work functions and for commissioned care placement.
