The Child in Focus: The Evolving Role of the Guardian Ad Litem
This book is based on a research investigation into the role of the guardians and their contribution to the welfare of children involved in care proceedings. It presents an up-to-date picture of the guardian at litem at work, drawn from the many perspectives of those guardians, local authority, social workers, children's solicitors, clerks of the court, judges and magistrates, and the children and their families.
This study is of particular relevance at a time of re-consideration of the Guardian Service and will have much to contribute to the current debate on the proposed new court welfare service. As such it will make essential reading for guardian ad litem and reporting officer panel managers, guardians, local authorities, the Judiciary, officers of the Court, policy makers in government departments and anyone researching child care.
