Cabinet puts the brakes on out-of-home placements for children

NL Times  

Within six weeks, the Cabinet will come up with an approach to prevent out-of-home placements for children as much as possible. This is because children are often worse off after being placed out-of-home than at home, said Don Ceder of ChristenUnie in a parliamentary debate about pressing problems in youth protection. ChristenUnie wants to keep this approach until the current crisis is over, while the other coalition parties want to stick to it until youth protectors have a lower workload and waiting lists are significantly reduced. GroenLinks, PvdA, SP and BIJ1 have called on Weerwind and State Secretary Maarten van Ooijen to come up with a crisis approach within a month with concrete measures to solve the acute problems.
