In CYFS care

According to Anne Tolley CYF has removed 250 babies from their parents in the last year. As bad as this may sound I am fairly sure (please tell me if I am wrong) that quite often a child is put with close family members while still remaining legally in the care of CYF. I sat in on a meeting where a CYF case worker was remonstrating about sticking to the (care and protection) plan because the child was ultimately her (CYF) responsibility and if she was not satisfied with his safety under that plan she would remove him from both parties.
