MONITORING ACTIVITIES CHILDREN Action plans: After two visits to foster families, the Ombudsman took up three cases on his own initiative about missing or insufficient action plans. The cases were concluded with criticism of the municipality. Violence within foster family: After a monitoring visit to a foster family, the Ombudsman informed the social supervision authorities that one of the foster children had told him that she had been subjected to violence in her previous foster family. In-house schools: After a monitoring visit to a private accommodation facility with an in-house school, the Ombudsman initiated an investigation of whether the inhouse school complied with the rules on minimum size (number of pupils), whether the pupils received the lessons they were entitled to receive, and whether the municipality carried out sufficient supervision of the school. The case is pending. After a visit to another private accommodation facility, the Ombudsman took up a case on his own initiative about the municipality’s supervision of the facility’s inhouse school. The case was concluded with criticism of the municipality in regard to form and content of the supervision. Emergency placement: After a monitoring visit to a residential institution, the Ombudsman initiated an investigation of why some of the children had been subject to emergency placement. One of the cases was concluded with criticism. (Annual Report 2014, Case No. 2014-19) 83
