How long from your person being Released Under Investigation to Social services getting back in contact with their own conditions? My person was Released Under Investigation nearly two weeks ago now, Solicitor said to try and go back to normal with life and that there are no restrictions so my person can come home. (We haven't done this and have stuck to what the bail conditions were before) I'm so confused by this though because I thought once bail conditions get removed, social services will be involved again? For context they closed our case last year and safety plan was to follow bail conditions until police change them. I've emailed OIC numerous times but I get no response. Do we just follow what the solicitor says? Or keep to the conditions of no unsupervised etc until we hear anything?

I wuld keep to the conditions for now, albeit voluntarily. The OIC and SS should keep each other in the loop but our son's OIC is very poor at that. My advice would be to tell SS yourself in writing so you have a paper trail and see what they say. Then you are covered and they can't accuse you of minimising or nor being protective enough. Better to have them coming back into your lives because of your transparency than suddenly finding yourself on the road to child protection stuff. Whatever happens ultimately you will always have brownie points for telling them yourself.

Hi, if I were you, I'd contact SS's in writing for clarification. Its not fair that you're trying to live your life not knowing what conditions you're potentially facing. Also, it will "look good" if you contact them, shows you're being protective. X
