The CA upheld a judgment refusing to grant Care Orders. It was stated that the Judge was entitled to prefer empirical evidence of what had been happening in the parents' home (which pointed to good enough care) to the evidence of a psychological assessment which concluded that the parenting was likely to fall below a good enough standard. The CA also held that there were legitimate criticisms of the Local Authority's actions in peremptorily removing the children. The language used by the Judge in reaching his conclusion was however criticised.
Court: Court Of Appeal (Civil Division) (England and Wales)
