My Lords, is one of the factors involved a problem of identification? Of the young people concerned many have reappeared in another school elsewhere in London or in another part of the country, either with the same name or with a slight variant of the name. Is part of the authorities' problem the matching of individuals with their previous identity?

My Lords, my noble friend is right. Noble Lords may be aware that Tim Benson, head teacher of Nelson Primary School in East Ham, London, and a National Association of Head Teachers representative, has been quoted by the BBC as saying that most children had probably simply moved to another school. It is the monitoring of that that we must get clear, so that we understand where those children are.
Many of them, thankfully, are safely in another school, but where we identify children who are of concern, it must be right that we have a system in place that alerts the authorities to the fact that those children are purely missing and that something has to be done about it. It is that cadre of children about whom we have to be very concerned.
