PDF - http://digbig.com/4whhn
"On 1 March 2007, BIA published its consultation paper ‘Planning Better Outcomes and Support for Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children’. The consultation paper identified a number of key areas for improvements to the immigration and care support arrangements for unaccompanied asylum seeking children. The publication of reform proposals in such a complex area understandably triggered a wide variety of responses. This paper sets out how (in light of the responses we received) we intend to take forward reform of the arrangements for unaccompanied asylum seeking children. Our approach will be focussed around the following key reforms."
