- High Court
Having evaluated the options against the s5 principles and expert evidence, the Judge correctly concluded that removal of the child from his mother and placement with the father, even for therapeutic intervention (Family Bridges), posed a greater and unacceptable risk of harm than leaving the child in the mother's care with highly restricted contact; appeal dismissed.
