Keynote in Child Protection

Posted by Sandra On December - 3 - 2012

DUTY TO REPORT

If a person has reasonable grounds to suspect that a child is or may be in need of protection, a report must be promptly made and shall include the information upon which it is based. You do not need to be sure that a child is or may be in need of protection to make a report to the Agency. “Reasonable grounds” are what an average person, given his or her training, experience, exercising normal and honest judgment would suspect. Once a report is made to the Agency, a determination will be made as to whether a protection investigation will be commenced. The person making the initial report should bear in mind that the duty to report is an ongoing obligation.

As such, if a person has made a previous report and has additional reasonable grounds to suspect that a child is or may be in need of protection, there continues to be responsibility to make a further report. It is also imperative that the person who has the reasonable grounds to suspect that a child is or may be in need of protection must make the report directly to the Agency. The person must not rely on another person to make the report on their behalf.
