12.1. Zita Home for Children with Special Needs to communicate all decisions concerning the child not only to the legal representative of the minor but also to the minor himself/herself. The Ministry of Justice has expressed its readiness to contribute to the drafting of the amendment if and when it receives the relevant legislative proposal from the Ministry of Human Capacities. 12.2. Home for Children with Special Needs of the Károlyi István Children’s Center I recommended considering that, if there is a proposal to place a child in a home for children with special needs, the child protection expert committees of the capital and the counties should state whether they deem necessary the restriction of the child’s personal liberty after reception. The Director of the Pest County Child Protection Center and Regional Child Protection Directorate returned my report stating that he was not the operator of the Home for Children with Special Needs.217 In my response, I drew the Director ’s attention to the fact that, should he disagree with my recommendation, he has to submit it, together with his position, to his supervisory organ. The supervisory organ has to inform me of its position on the merits of the initiative and on the measures taken within thirty days after receiving the submission.218 Since I may not deprive the supervisory organ of its aforementioned powers, I informed the Director-General of the General Directorate of Social Affairs and Child Protection about the position of the Director of the Pest County Child Protection Center and Regional Child Protection Directorate, requesting him to comply with his obligation specified in Section 32, Subsection (3) of the Ombudsman Act. Responding to my letter to his supervisory organ, the Director of the Pest County Child Protection Center and Regional Child Protection Directorate reiterated his position that proposing a child’s placement in a home for children with special needs falls within the competence of the National Council of Child Protection Experts. In addition, he communicated that he could not respond on the merits of my recommendation because I had not enclosed the report.219 217 217 218 219 The letter of the director of the Pest County Child Protection Center and Regional Child Protection Directorate, dated February 08, 2016, sent under file number Ig/81/2016, has been filed under case number AJB-705/2016/2016.
