Munby LJ 
On adoption (from Re R) 
December 16 2014 
I wish to emphasise, with as much force as possible, that Re B-S was not intended 
to change and has not changed the law. Where adoption is in the child’s best 
interests, local authorities must not shy away from seeking, nor courts from 
making, care orders with a plan for adoption, placement orders and adoption 
orders
