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

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>
