Public Law Working Group final report – briefing for CVAA members

This week the long-awaited final Public Law Working Group: Adoption Sub Group report has been published: Recommendations for best practice in respect of adoption. This report is highly significant for our sector as it scrutinises the current legal process for making adoption orders in England and Wales and details a raft of reforms, particularly in relation to contact, access to records and adoption and placement applications. Given the length of the report (136 pages) we have produced this short overview briefing for members, but highly recommend reading the full report for further detail.

The briefing is available here.
