Children and Young Persons Bill [Lords] – in a Public Bill Committee am 11:45 am ar 1 Gorffennaf 2008.
I shall not speak at great length on this clause. It is important because it sends a signal that we are absolutely serious about maximising the potential of the provisions in clause 11. If we do not, we will move within a specified period to establish a completely independent national service. That should make it absolutely clear that we are serious, so it is important to have that power set out in the clause.
