I note that Mr Kevin Jones is the assistant Director, serving under Director Charles Proctor. How can the assistant director Kevin Jones be both Assistant Director of safeguarding children while at the same time be sitting on an adoption pannel? Given that 98% of adoptions in Cumbria are forced adoptions, ie the natural parents did not consent, then is there not a serious conflict of interests in Mr Jones wearing two hats? This is a matter of grave public concern is it not?
