In re D (A Child) (Care Proceedings: Designated Local Authority) – WLR Daily

In re D (A Child) (Care Proceedings: Designated Local Authority): [2012] EWCA Civ 627;  [2012] WLR (D)  146

“In determining which local authority was to be the designated authority in care order proceedings governing a child, where the mother was herself a child in care, the ‘disregard provision’ contained within section 105(6) of the Children Act 1989 did not apply to the mother. It applied only to the child who was the subject of the care order proceedings.”
