Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of devolving responsibility for the Adoption and Special Guardianship Support Fund to regional or local decision-makers on families.
Answered by Josh MacAlister
The department has recently undertaken a consultation on the future of adoption support, including a proposal to devolve funding to local level, inviting evidence on the potential impacts. We are currently reviewing responses and will continue to engage with stakeholders on a range of issues. No decisions have been made at the current time.
