Abstract
Barnardos welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback into the draft National Quality Standards for Residential and Foster Care Services. Overall Barnardos is pleased with the current draft of quality standards as they aim to increase the quality, safety and care for all children living outside their family home in a range of settings. It is a welcome development that these standards will replace the current four sets of standards that operate depending on the type of service. This uniformity of standards will hopefully lead to a greater consistency of high quality of care, in the interests of achieving a better childhood and future for all children.
