WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY G.P. SOUTHERN OF ST. HELIER
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 14th JULY 2015
Question
What co-ordinated approach, if any, does the Minister have with his Housing and Social Security Ministerial colleagues, to address the increased needs, especially in relation to housing, of families volunteering for fostering?
Answer
There is an effective working partnership between Health, Housing and Social Security, both at a strategic and an operational level with a shared commitment to meeting the needs of the most vulnerable children in our community. This often involves bespoke solutions in response to individual needs. I have asked my officers to discuss with the Strategic Housing Unit the support available through the housing gateway for families volunteering for fostering.
