This Green Paper outlines the Government's proposals for the reform and improvement of child care, following the death of Victoria Climbie and subsequent investigations by Lord Laming and various inspectorates dealing with children matters.

This Green Paper focuses on four main areas:

• supporting parents and carers;

• early intervention and effective prevention;

• accountability and integration (locally, regionally and nationally, including a Minster for Children, Young People and Families);

• workforce reform.

Child protection is viewed as inseparable from policies designed to maximise every child's potential, policies which address educational failure, anti-social behavour, ill health, teenage parenthood.
