Answered by Minister for Climate Change
The number of children added to the child protection register during the year ending 31 March 2021 is available on StatsWales here: https://statswales.gov.wales/v/LntO
The number of children removed from the child protection register during the year ending 31 March 2021 is available on StatsWales here: https://statswales.gov.wales/v/LntN
This data shows more children were removed from the register than were added to it during the year ending 31 March 2021. Data was not collected for the years 2017 to 2020.
