Our interim Report made several recommendations about how the Secretary of State should use his powers in relation to duties towards children and young people’s educational, health and care needs, if they are required again during the pandemic. We also made recommendations about the Government’s guidance to local authorities on how to interpret and apply reasonable endeavours. We will continue to push for implementation of our recommendations while the temporary powers remain available.
