Question
Will the Cabinet Secretary have discussions with local authorities regarding recording the reasons that a child is adopted or fostered in a format which can be easily shared?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Social Care
The Welsh Government publishes data about children who start to be looked after by local authority and their need for care. This is available at: Children starting to be looked after during year to 31 March by local authority and need for care (gov.wales).
This includes reasons why children are fostered or placed for adoption.
