Foster Care and Forced Adoption

Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Hounslow Borough Council should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Hounslow Borough Council,

1. What is the budget for children services and what has the budget been over the last 5 years?

2. What is the amount of money spent on Locums, Agency Staff, Private Adoption Agencies or Care Agencies, including charitable organisations such as Barnardos? Can the names of the private agencies, consultancies or charities utilised be provided. And can a financial breakdown be provided to detail how much each external organisations received from the services provided.

3. Of this breakdown how much was spent on legal fees?

4. Which portion of children's services comes from income raised by the Local Authority or Central Government and is there a cap by Central Government on the proportion of funds?

5. How many children have been forcibly removed (Under Section 50 of the Children Act 1989) over the last 5 years to foster care or care?

6. How many forced adoptions have occurred over the last 5 years?

Yours faithfully,

Francesca Solis
