Résumé
"This report presents information
about malicious referrals to child
welfare agencies in Canada using
data from the 2008 Canadian
Incidence Study of Reported Child
Abuse and Neglect (CIS‑2008). The
CIS‑2008 is the third national study
to examine the incidence of reported
child abuse and neglect in Canada. The primary
objective of the CIS‑2008 was to
provide reliable estimates of the
scope and characteristics of child
abuse and neglect investigated by
child welfare organizations in Canada
in 2008.
There were an estimated 235,842
child maltreatment-related investigations
conducted in Canada in
2008 (174,411 child maltreatment
investigations and 61,431 risk-only
investigations). Information about
malicious referrals was collected
in an estimated 170,710 child
maltreatment investigations. As
previously mentioned, information
about malicious referrals was not
collected for risk-only investigations.
As shown in Table 2, of the 170,710
child maltreatment investigations,
only 9,369 investigations (6%) were
the result of a malicious referral."Text from pages 1-3.
