The President of the Family Division has made two amendments to his Guidance on Allocation and Gatekeeping for Care, Supervision and other Proceedings under Part IV of the Children Act 1989 (Public Law) 2014.

These changes are unrelated, one has been made via an addendum and the other through re-issuing the supporting Schedule to this Guidance.

The addendum provides a temporary amendment to the Guidance, which ceases effect on 30 October 2020.

The other amendment is a permanent addition to the Schedule, and therefore a new version of this document has been issued. Links to these documents are provided below.
