This Order makes amendments in consequence of the Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 (2014 asp 8) (“the Act”). The Act inserted a new section 26A into the Children (Scotland) Act 1995 which places a duty on local authorities to provide ‘continuing care’ to eligible people who have ceased to be looked after by the local authority.
