<p><a href="/">1. Introduction</a></p>
<p><a href="../../gu/legalhelp/leaflet29_2.html">2. Who can make decisions about my child´s care?</a></p>
<p><strong>3. Why would the council get involved in my child’s care?</strong></p>
<p>The Children’s Services Department in your local council is responsible for making sure that children are safe and are well cared for by their parents or the people looking after them.</p>
<p>Sometimes the council receives information that makes them worried about a child’s welfare. If it believes that your child may be harmed, it will investigate and decide whether action is necessary to protect your child (this work is known as ‘child protection’). The council must get the court’s permission to take any action you disagree with. Here ‘court’ means judges or magistrates who make decisions about children.</p>
<p>If the council believes that your child is suffering serious harm or is likely to suffer serious harm, it can apply to the court for a care order (known as ‘care proceedings’). A care order would give the council permission to remove your child from your care. The council should do this only if it thinks this is the best way to ensure your child is properly protected, because:</p>
<ul>
<li>the care you are giving (or have given) your child is not what it would be reasonable to expect a parent to give; or</li>
<li>your child is out of your control.</li>
</ul>
<p><a href="/">4. What if the council thinks my child is in immediate danger?</a></p>
