We also welcome the Law Commission’s project on legal reform of kinship care. We particularly welcome the Law Commission’s plans to investigate the benefits and drawbacks of introducing a bespoke order to recognise, support, and regulate kinship care. Such an order could assist in ensuring the availability of better avenues to support carers, and a more comprehensive framework for safeguarding and protecting children. We urge the government to thoroughly consider the outcomes of this project as soon as practically possible after publication. We ask the government to keep us informed of this process, and to write to us when a response to the proposed reforms is published. (Recommendation, Paragraph 84) 100
