Former L.A.C children/Domesitc Abuse - losing their children to adoption

S Davis (Account suspended) made this Freedom of Information request to Kent County Council

Waiting for an internal review by Kent County Council of their handling of this request.

From: S Davis (Account suspended)

4 June 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

How many former L.A.C Children have had their children removed by
social
services, using the factor that the parents had previously been in
care and or abused as children and therefore are posing a future
risk of possible emotional abuse?

And why it seems to be becoming
a common factor,what does KCC, define as future risk of possible
emotional abuse given
the fact that there is no possible way of detecting whether anyone
poses a future risk of possible emotional abuse, and why this
is being used for the excuse to also remove the children of former
victims of domestic violence and child abuse.

Yours faithfully,

S Davis

Dear S Davis

Thank you for your email.

The Council is of the opinion that this latest communication, when
considered in conjunction with all the other requests you have
submitted, is a deliberate attempt to disrupt the Council's operations and
is therefore manifestly unreasonable. The Council has no obligation to
respond to requests that are perceived to be either vexatious or repeated
under section 14 (1) & (2) of the Freedom of Information Act
respectively and collectively, your requests fall into this category. The
Council will review this position in three months time but until then, no
further requests from you will be considered.

If you disagree with this stance, you can appeal direct the Information
Commissioner, who oversees compliance with the Freedom of Information Act
2000. This is because there is no-one sufficiently senior within the
Authority that could conduct an independent internal review of this
decision which was made at the highest level. Details of what you need to
do, should you wish to pursue this course of action, are available from
the Information Commissioner's website .

Will be interesting to see if Medway Family Court takes any notice of Lord Justice Thorpe and Lord Justice Wall's criticisms, the latter ordered his comments to be circulated to family courts and adoption agencies across the land.
(Could his comments be referring to the Law of the Land)

The Lords appear to recognize that there is a clear difference between the LAW and legal child kidnap; there cannot be Lawful child kidnap.
