Child protection orders

I think what an order [child protection order] would do, would allow the worker to put that wee bit of added pressure on the mother saying, Look, we ll expect you to do this and to do that, or to expect you to liaise with us, and if not we have to go back to the [Children s] hearing. ... 

Some children are exposed to toxic chemicals or to hazardous environments in unique circumstances. There is a need to understand chemical exposures and other health stressors in special settings in the world (child labourers, street children, refugees). Globally, millions of children live under these conditions. Currently, data on children s exposures are inadequate to effectively assess multimedia and multiroute exposures in order to conduct child-protective risk assessments. The limited exposure data that are available have focused on children in developed countries, and information on the levels of chemical exposures in children in developing countries is generally lacking. 

For extremely urgent concerns, where you can t/don t have time to contact social services, call the police. Social workers, the police, or the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) can urgently remove a child from the home after seeking an Emergency Protection Order (EPO) from the court. In exceptional circumstances, they may remove the child without an EPO, though this would be in a case of dire emergency. 

The Commission and the CSM also made recommendations on the introduction of many other broad safety measures. These included the Phen-acetin Prohibition Order (SI 1974/1082), presentation of medicines in relation to child safety (SI 1975/2000), and declaration of alcohol in medicinal products on their package as active ingredient where this is likely to be pharmacologically active. Other labelling issues culminated in an Order (SI 1976/1726) that set out the standard particulars that must be shown on the containers and packaging of medicinal products. Consultations on other generally applicable warnings on the labels of certain medicines to protect children and to ensure that... 

The Certificate of Confidentiality is a federally sponsored document that provides immunity to investigators from any governmental or civil order to disclose identifying information from research records. The Certificate is granted under 301(d) of the Public Healthy Service Act. The Certificate provides additional protection against disclosure of confidential information to outside parties. When a Certificate of Confidentiality is granted, both the protections and limitations of it should be explained to the child and caregiver. The application for the Certificate can be obtained at most federal research institutions. 

Compared to their public school enrollment, a disproportionate number of only children seem to attend private schools. This is not surprising because parents of only children are naturally protective, are highly invested in their child s preparation, and often want to exercise a sense of choice over his or her education. For many of these parents, private schools offer a promise of stricter classroom control and increased social safety, a more academic focus and enriched curriculum, a more homogeneous and orderly student body, and the power to expect and enforce expectations that students will pay attention, follow rules, and do their work. 

Alternatively vitamin D may be obtained from the diet. The only rich sources are the liver oils of fish few other foods contain significant amounts. In recognition of the risk of deficiency in Britain, where sunshine cannot be relied upon, margarine, dried milk and infant foods are fortified by the addition of vitamin D, while in the USA foods such as milk and yeast are irradiated in order to increase their content. A dietary intake of 10 fig cholecalciferol per day is sufficient to protect a child against rickets without fear of causing hypervitaminosis, while the adult requirement is 2-5 fig. 

Crash speeds must remain below a certain value in order to prevent serious injury. How a safe speed is defined is partly determined by the characteristics of a potential crash and the protection against injury that may be present when a crash occurs (e.g., seatbelts, child restraint seats, crash helmets, side underrun protection on trucks). Furthermore, the age of potential casualties should be considered when defining a safe crash speed. For example, at equal levels of crash energy, the consequences are more severe for elderly road users than for younger ones due to their greater vulnerability.
