Funding to promote better integrated services for vulnerable and deprived children will be doubled, minister for education and young people Cathy Jamieson has announced. The Changing Children's Services Fund is to be extended for a further two years and, as a result of the Scottish Budget in September, 66m will be available by 2006 to continue work already underway. Ms Jamieson said the outcome of the Child Protection Review to be revealed by the First Minister was likely to recommend further improvements to integrated children's services.
