For this period the investigation of social workers has finished and the information could be filled in by the District Child Protection Department and sent to the Agency.
Current developments
Developments will be related with collection of more information about the measures undertaken on one and the same case by different institutions. It will improve the history of the work with one and the same child in risk. This is necessary because sometimes the staff changes in child protection departments or the family of the child moves and another child protection department continue to deal with the case. This will improve the statistics about children in risk on one hand, but also the effect of the social work effect on the other hand.
Relation with third parties
The Agency provide data to the Ministry of Social Policy, Council of Ministers, NGOs, International organizations and bodies, the EU Commission on request or within the process of regular reporting according to UN Conventions.
