Ministers and officials regularly meet key stakeholders, including directors of children\u2019s services (DCSs), to discuss children\u2019s services.<\/p>

For example, in November 2018, I met with DCSs and local authority chief executives at the National Children and Adult Services Conference, held roundtables with groups of both DCSs and local authority chief executives, and have attended induction events for new DCSs. In addition, my right hon. Friend, the Secretary of State and I have very recently met with a number of children in care to hear their views and experiences.<\/p>

The department recognises how important it is to speak directly with those who are on the front-line delivering services for children and families.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4113", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stratford-on-Avon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Nadhim Zahawi"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-02-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-02-01T11:06:45.953Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-01-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Children: Social Services"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what recent discussions he has had with directors of children\u2019s services on their ability to deliver their statutory duties to children and families.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4139", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Ian Lavery"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wansbeck"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Ian Lavery"} ], "uin" : "211750"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/100761", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Women and Equalities"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/100761/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

I receive regular representations on many issues including the role of women in public life.<\/p>

We are removing barriers that prevent women from progressing in public life. For example, the Government has established the Centre for Public Appointments (CPA) in the Cabinet Office to ensure best practice is followed. As a result, the proportion of new female appointees to public boards has increased to 39%. We have also supported political parties to increase women\u2019s representation thorough a combination of legislative and voluntary measures.<\/p>
