CONSULTATION ON ASYLUM SEEKER CHILDREN - DEADLINE 25th APRIL

Just in case you haven't seen this consultation - the Border and
Immigration Agency is consulting on their new Code of Practice for
Keeping Children Safe from Harm. This is of interest to all who work
with asylum seeker children and families and gives an opportunity to
move towards safer working practices. 

The documents are available on the BIA website
www.bia.homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk

However, they are a bit difficult to find! If you put 'consultation' in
Search, it will come up in the list.
