Government commits to fund reporting on court cases involving children in State care

The 70 reports also included cases where sexual or criminal exploitation of children in State care was suspected.
The Government has committed to continuing to fund reporting on cases involving State care issues, as a call is made for an inter-departmental group to be set up to prioritise issues facing children in care.
It follows the publication on Monday of the latest batch of reports from the Child Law Project, which highlighted concerns about a lack of special care placements, as well as concerns about the availability of foster and residential care.
