Conclusions
39.In those circumstances, I find that threshold is crossed, and that the threshold should be amended accordingly.40.Against that background, all of the parties agree that it is in K’s welfare interests for a care order to be made; I have no doubt at all that in the circumstances, that is something which is in her welfare interests. 41.I remind myself that her welfare interests are paramount. I do not propose in the circumstances to go through the Welfare Checklist, but it is apparent that virtually all the pointers are towards the making of a care order. This is a young person who has been through a torrid, difficult, and traumatic time. She has her own significant difficulties. Unfortunately, for various reasons, her family are not able to provide the support that she needs, and she needs the intervention of the Local Authority. The best place for her, as agreed by everyone, is in a foster placement. In my judgment, it is vital that the Local Authority share parental responsibility so that there is in fact someone who is able to exercise parental responsibility, and so that K can be looked after appropriately.42.I make a care order in this case.
