Gwenda Thomas, Deputy Minister for Social Services:

"In 2009, I made a series of Oral and Written Statements setting out my concerns about the provision of social services for children in the City and County of Swansea. You will know that I have established an Intervention Board to provide robust external challenge to the City and County of Swansea so that they could bring about the improvements needed in their services.
