Sally BainThe Cornwall Council cabinet member responsible for children's services, Sally Bain, tells me she plans to stand down at the end of the month for personal reasons.

There is no doubt that being one of the 10 councillors who effectively run Cornwall Council is a very full-time job, demanding several hours a day. Sally plans to remain a "back-bench" member of the council. But her departure from the cabinet clearly poses some questions for the council's Conservative leadership - not least, who will replace her?

The government-appointed "trouble-shooter" sent in to sort out Cornwall's children's services, Lucy de Groot, is due to report to children's minister Dawn Primarolo within the next few weeks.
