What actually causes this lack of communication, is it petty inter- departmental squabbles ? Department officials sticking to the letter of the law ? A general reluctance to get involved, a “let it develop” attitude ? Or some other reason(s) ?

Every time we hear tails such as this they are usually followed by the statement you highlighted Bonnyboy "lessons have been learned", but have they. If this was the case then we would not hear of this type of abuse. Okay, I know that people make mistakes, and the excuss is always the same, "under pressure case workers". To me how anybody can fail to see abuse on this scale is quite beyond me, yet no one ever sacked. In any other job people making cock-ups on this scale wouldbe out on their ear, but not these people, they're fireproof.
