This promise of the legislature will allow the children advocates to be more vocal about children's issues.They will be able to talk openly about policies which were prohibited under previous rules and regulations. This legislation will enable to release the news in public,providing correct information to the people.
This step and being more vocal about children affairs will cause a positive outcome in the improvement of child welfare system.Being transparent about matters like successful fostering relationships stories is going to make people more aware of children's rights protection.
