Children's Social Care Independent Review: Integrated Care Boards

Question for Department of Health and Social Care

UIN HL4894, tabled on 18 January 2023

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the remarks by Lord Markham on 11 January (HL Deb col 1415), how they will incorporate recommendations from the Independent review of Children's Social Care, published on 23 May 2022, into their Integrated Care Board Plans.

The Government’s approach to the recommendations from the Independent Review of Children’s Social Care will be published early this year. Our 2019 manifesto committed to review the children’s social care system, to provide better outcomes for children. Last year, three reviews were published, including The Independent Review of Children’s Social Care. We are committed to providing a rapid response to these reviews early this year so we can make the urgent progress that children need.
