Gagging Orders in Secret Family Courts

The request was successful.

Dear Sir or Madam,

n the wake of the people speaking out against the abuses of the
secret family courts and forced adoption of children to strangers,
instead of being retained within their real natural families. I
would like to know how your authority compares to others in
fulfilling your responsibilities to families & their children.

(a) How many individuals have been taken to court by your authority
in-order to gag them. To stop them from speaking out about the
injustices they have suffered at the hands of the council
children's social services and secret family courts. Provide all
records to-date that are held.

(b) How much did these gagging order injunctions cost the rate
payer.

(c) Who is responsible for actioning these enforcement orders by
the council, i.e. who signs the applications for court.

(d) How many parents /relatives/individuals have received further
sanctions for breaking these gagging orders.

(e) Are any of these decisions to gag/sanction taken by unelected
local authority officers responsible for children’s social care,
finance, legal or any other relevant department.

(f) If councillors make these decisions at which meeting(s) are
these discussed.

Yours faithfully,

Mrs Docherty

Gummer, Claire, Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council

Dear Mr. Docherty,
 
I refer to your request for information in respect of the above and have
now had the opportunity of discussing it with my colleagues.
 
As far as the Council is aware no specific application may be made to gag
individuals in the manner in which you describe and therefore no records
of the type to which you refer are within the Council's possession.
 
Yours sincerely,
 
Colin Sparkes.
