Influencing policy
While NCB is active in a range of policy
areas, we select a number of themes to guide our proactive work to
influence government and Parliament. These policy priorities
reflect the breadth of NCB's work and are underpinned by the rights
and interests of children and young people. NCB’s policy priorities
are reviewed regularly, making sure that we remain open and
responsive to new developments, as well as enabling us to assess
our progress and impact.

Find out about NCB's Policy Unit and get more information on
consultations that NCB has or will be
responding to.
From 2004 to 2007, working with
the Children’s Legal Centre and funded by the Nuffield
Foundation, the unit carried out a Child
Impact Assessment project to analyse proposed legislation for
its likely effects on children and young people.
