PRIVATE ADOPTION AGENCIES ARE SUFFERING FINANCIALY DUE TO THE RECESSION

public

I am not surprised by the above headline.

Some Private fostering agencies pay up to £800 a week for each child fostered.

An Adoption Agency called Coram,is working with Local Authority's in the London area, to recruit prospective adopters to come forward to foster babies in the early stages of Care Proceedings,and planning for placement is taking place before the child is even born, costing millions of the taxpayers money, instead of using the kincare clause highlighted in the Public Law Guidelines, by allowing the child to reside with immediate family members like Grandparents.
