Join us on Wednesday 12th May 2021 at 6pm via zoom when Maria Hancock discussing the independence of Iindependent Reviewing Officers.
In A & B (Care Orders and Placement Orders – Failures) [2018] EWFC 72 Keehan J said that if the functions and roles of the IRO are not exercised in a clear, robust and untrammelled fashion, children or young people will suffer.
“ The IRO is, or should be, the child’s protector or advocate.”
Maria will lead a discussion on the vital role of the IRO in care proceedings
