The background is that the number of reports of concern regarding children and young people has increased in Skövde municipality in recent years.
– We have an obligation to make a Lex report if we don’t start the investigations at a fast enough pace. Not doing it is wrong, says Stina Gustavsson, head of social affairs in Skövde SLA.
The social service will now, among other things, take consultant help to handle the investigations.
