BR & Ors, Re (Transparency Order: Finding of Fact Hearing) [2023] EWFC 9

Poole J was dealing with care proceedings relating to 3 families (previously unconnected), all based in the Yorkshire area. He had previously determined that the fact-finding aspects of each set of care proceedings should be heard at a combined hearing, as each case related to allegations of fabricated or induced illness, and involved the children in question being treated at the same hospital (Sheffield Children’s Hospital).
