Abstract

This evidence briefing paper summarises some of the key issues related to children looked after in Wales; and reflects upon issues that we expect the incoming Welsh Government to face after the 2021 Senedd election. The paper looks specifically at the growing number and rate of children in care, and variation among local authorities. It also considers the four key factors that affect children’s experiences and outcomes - reunification of children and birth families; the involvement of children and birth families in decisions about care; the joined-up provision of services for children and families; strategic commissioning, and the provision of children’s care placements.
