CHILDREN AND YOUNG PERSONS
This Order inserts a new paragraph in Schedule 2 to the Children Act 1989, which requires local authorities to prepare and publish plans for the provision of children’s services in their area and to keep those plans under review. In preparing or updating their plans, local authorities are required to consult health and education authorities, certain voluntary organisations, the police, probation service and other relevant bodies. The Secretary of State may require local authority plans to be submitted to him at any time.
