When local authorities make decisions, there must be closer links between those which relate to:
- adoption,
- permanence,
- residence orders, and
- the legal tribunal of the Children’s Hearing.
Efforts must also be made to streamline aspects of decision-making when:
- a Permanence Order has been applied for, or
- an Adoption Order has been applied for.
