Petition Action

Social Services must provide evidence to be able to withhold children from their families.

Additional Information

Social Services must not be able to withhold children from their families without sound evidence of abuse or mis-treatment. Children must be returned to their families following a successful defense in Court over any such allegations.

Heresay evidence must never be acceptable as a reason to remove children from their families. Families can still be closely monitored where there is suspicion.

Children who have been removed from their families must be allowed supervised access to their parents until a Court has decided that abuse has occurred.

In the event that one parent/guardian is found guilty of abuse and removed from the family but another parent/guardian is not implicated, the children must be returned to the 'not guilty' parent.
