Joint Committee On Children, Equality, Disability, Integration And Youth

General Scheme of the Child Care (Amendment) Bill 2023: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Claire Quinn:

I understand the question. It can arise that there are differences of professional opinion.

Quite frequently, a collaborative working relationship with the other stakeholders in the child's world is developed through communication and ongoing meetings. On occasion, however, professional opinions differ. In these cases, the differences are brought to the court to be adjudicated on. Ultimately, the decision of the court is final.
