,. Paget continued.
He said Emergency Parents
goes into operation the moment

been left alone in the home,
whatever the reason. Whoever.,
• goes intoftlie home makes every
attempt to locate the parents
:and then Stays with the children
until the parents do arrive back.
"We take the risk of being
sued," he told his audience, "but
I believe if I have the right to
remove a Child from his legal

right to keep a, child in -his own
home." '
