## Description

Nottingham City Council \(NCC\) has a statutory duty to provide sufficient accommodation for its Looked After Children and is also required by law to carry out assessments of people who formally express a desire to foster or adopt to ascertain that they are suitable individuals to foster or adopt children\. Such assessment must be carried out within specific timescales\.
