Dear Ms Moore

Thank you for your recent Freedom Of Information request

I am responding on behalf of North Yorkshire County Council Childrens Social Care.

In response to your question ,79 children were adopted against parental consent and wishes in the period from April 2006 to April 2010.

I hope this information is of use to you.

Yours sincerely

Jerry Barnes
