I AM writing to you to clarify my points made in your paper on Thursday in the article Support groups ‘can help tackle abuse problem’.
I am particularly referring to the quote:“I think personally the police response has been a lot more humble and open. There’s a lot of arrogance with the social services.”
I had stated clearly that I was referring to a Radio 4 interview that I had just heard, with the mother of victim three.
OXCAT has never worked with Social Services at all in the past, or had any contact with them and so I couldn’t possibly give such a comment.
OXCAT has no comments to make regarding the attitude of either the police or the social services and I apologise for any misunderstanding caused.
