The applicant applied to the Child and Family Services Review Board under s. 68(5) of the Child and Family Services Act, alleging the respondent society failed to comply with the Internal Complaint Review Panel (ICRP) process.
The applicant argued the society did not provide reasons for decisions related to an investigation into allegations against him.
The Board found that while the society generally complied with the ICRP process, it failed to explain why it made a verification decision before receiving certain interview transcripts and why it did not interview the child's peers.
The application was granted in part, and the society was ordered to provide written reasons on those two issues.
