Responding to the news that a child practice review highlighted ‘missed opportunities’ to intervene before a toddler was murdered by her mum’s boyfriend, Dr Altaf Hussain MS, Welsh Conservative Shadow Minister for Social Care said:
“This is a truly tragic case, that should not have been allowed to happen.
“Improving the safeguarding of children must be our top priority, but Labour in Wales are the only government in the UK to have not yet enacted a children’s services review.
“The Welsh Conservatives renew our calls for a Wales-wide children’s services review, involving every council, to improve outcomes and to avoid tragic cases such as Lola James’.”
