'˜This is  especially given the pressures on our services arising from increasing demand from year to year.

 '˜Â It is well known we are having to make some difficult cuts in services and I would ask people to bear in mind some of those cuts are because we are prioritising the children who need care. I am pleased our £6.5 million investment in children's care is  starting to pay off.'
