looked after children

Angela Wileman made this Freedom of Information request to Ceredigion Council

The request was refused by Ceredigion Council.

From: Angela Wileman

30 September 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,
Under the freedom of information act I would like to know numerical
statistics in order by year during the period of 1998 to 2008 (or
as far back as you can go without charging me) for the following;

1) how many children were taken into local authority care on
interim care orders and emergency protection orders under the
catagory of emotional harm during the above period ? i do not wish
you to include any children for any other catagories of harm/abuse.

2)Out of these children who were taken into care for emotional harm
how many of them were specifically for domestic violence between
their parents? again i do not wish you to include children who had
violence directed at them as that would fall into a different
catagory being physical abuse.

3)Out of these children who were put into care for domestic
violence how many were returned to family or extended family ?

4)Out of these how many children were put on full care orders?

5)of the children put on full care orders how many were adopted
during these periods.

Yours faithfully,

Angela Wileman

Dear Ms Wileman,

In response to your recent request for Information (as below) from
Ceredigion County Council I am afraid that we are unable to comply with
your request as the cost of complying with the request would exceed the
relevant fee limit of £450 by virtue of Section 12(1) of the Act
