Create a new body to investigate complaints against child social services
I believe that there are not adequate rights to seek redress regarding the actions of child social services teams.
Complaints about misconduct and mistakes should be investigated in a timely way by an independent body, and resolved. A new body should be created to take on this task.
While there may be some occasions where it is necessary to remove a child, we believe that in many cases this happens unnecessarily, and that child social services teams act incorrectly, leading to situations that are unfair and unjust.
We want the Government to create a new body to investigate complaints against child social services, identify any misconduct and mistakes, and ensure that these are resolved.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
