Next April we will see DOLS being replaced by Liberty protection safeguarding.

The new policy will include 16 year olds, putting more stress on their parents, as one parent may be forced to leave their job to look after their sons and daughters, leaving them in many cases, with genuine financial hardship.

They may also have the extra stress looking after children who may well have challenging behaviour problems.  new Liberty protection safeguards come into operation, replacing the old DOLS policy, deprivation of Liberty safeguarding. In April 2022.
