 The Bull report looked children's lives on Jersey |
A Jersey politician is questioning how a report into services for problem children came to be commissioned. Deputy Jerry Dorey has made a number of criticisms of the report which offers advice on how the needs of Jersey children with emotional and behavioural difficulties should be met.
The report was written by Kathie Bull from the UK's Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted). It dealt with various aspects of care and education of children on the island.
Deputy Dorey claims a team of experts should have compiled the report instead of one individual.
Personal preconceptions
Deputy Dorey admitted he is only half way through reading the 354 page publication.
However, he said: "My suspicions have been aroused sufficiently by now to be extremely concerned at the decision which we might make in haste, and regret at leisure."
Health president Senator Stuart Syvret, one of the three committee presidents who first commissioned the report, has dismissed Deputy Dorey's claims as "weak".
Mr Syvret said the public had a right to know about the report's findings.
