    Abstract'Liberating the NHS' and the new outcomes framework place information at the heart of the management of the National Health Service (NHS) and develop further the quality framework defined by Lord Darzi. In support of children, paediatricians have a responsibility to understand the informatics agenda and to ensure that data collection is as accurate as possible. There are particular difficulties in supplying a comprehensive health record for children and providing them with the benefits of access to their health records. It is essential that paediatricians work to ensure that these problems are overcome and that children do not miss out because of legal, practical and ethical issues which can be overcome, but often are permitted to stand in the way of real improvements.
