TY - JOUR PY - 2004// TI - Making the most of the Victoria Climbié Inquiry Report JO - Child abuse review A1 - Reder, Peter A1 - Duncan, Sylvia SP - 95 EP - 114 VL - 13 IS - 2 N2 - The principal findings of the Victoria Climbié Inquiry Report (Lord Laming, 2003) repeat those of most previous fatal child abuse inquiries or reviews, revealing problems with professionals' assessments, communications, skill base and resources. There is a danger that the recommendations of this latest report will be implemented in an overbureaucratic manner, reducing their potential to make a significant difference to practice. Instead, it is essential to build on the core lessons of this and previous inquiries, which is that professionals' capacity to think about their cases and their work must be enhanced. This has considerable implications for the training of professionals and the resources available to them. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
