Petition Review Social Services and set up an independent body to review complaints

•Introduce an independent body to review decisions made by social services to ensure unbiased judgements.

•Require the recording of social services interviews/visits

More details

I have seen and read so many complaints about how social workers have allegedly manipulated situations to give them a case through mis-quoting parents and professionals as well as hypothesising without evidence. Social workers are given the power to use their opinions to remove a child from a parents care. There is no independent complaints procedure for the decisions that are made outside of the local authority or the courts.
