Section 2C: Primary function: reports

Children Act 2004 · 2004 c. 31View on legislation.gov.uk

Part 1: Children's Commissioner

This section applies where the Children's Commissioner publishes a report in the discharge of the primary function.

The Commissioner must, if and to the extent he or she considers it appropriate, also publish the report in a version which is suitable for children (or, if the report relates to a particular group of children, for those children).

Where the report contains recommendations about the exercise by a person of functions of a public nature, the Commissioner may require that person to state in writing, within such period as the Commissioner may reasonably require, what action the person has taken or proposes to take in response to the recommendations.
