Abstract

Family policy was a key component of the British Labour government's domestic agenda from the election of the first 'New' Labour government in 1997 to its defeat in May 2010. The 1997 Labour Party manifesto set out the overall approach to family policy that characterised that policy its 13 years in power: 'Labour does not see families and the state as rival providers for the needs of our citizens. [...] But families cannot flourish unless government plays its distinctive role: [...] Society, through government, must assist families to achieve collectively what no family can achieve alone.' (Labour Party, 1997). The Labour government subsequently introduced a wide range of family focused initiatives and interventions designed to 'support' families and improve individual, family, and social outcomes. The variety of policy initiatives were matched by important government reports and legislation, such as Every Child Matters (H M Government, 2003), the 2004 Children Act, and the Children’s Plan (DCSF, 2007).
