Description and Table of Contents
Description
What has the Children Act achieved in its first year? This report contains a comprehensive description of its operations. During 1992 local authority interventions appeared to become more sharply focused, with more children remaining in their own families and 50% fewer emergency orders to remove a child from home being made. In addition, there was a substantial fall in the number of children entering compulsory care, suggesting that the idea of a working partnership between parents and authorities is becoming a reality. This report is aimed at all child care professionals and policymakers.
