Commentary on Sections

Part 5 – Child’s plan

Section 38 – Delivery of a child’s plan

95.This section requires that a relevant authority which is to provide a targeted intervention (either directly or through a third party) in terms of a child’s plan is to provide it, so far as reasonably practicable, in accordance with the plan. This does not apply where the responsible authority considers that to do so would adversely affect the wellbeing of the child (subsection (2)).
