Carers of Children (Support) (PE998) Petition PE998, by Moira Lenehan, on behalf of the New Fossils Grandparents Support Group, calls on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Executive to establish a national framework to provide financial, respite, social work and educational support for grandparents, relatives and friends who are carers of children who no longer live with their natural parents. At its meeting on 30 October 2006, the committee agreed to seek views on the petition from the Social Work Inspection Agency, the Fostering Network, the British Association for Adoption and Fostering, Children 1st and the Scottish Executive, and to seek the views of the petitioner on the responses received.
