A Swansea social worker has been dismissed after being found guilty of 19 charges of misconduct.Dermot Jones has been struck off the register of social care workers due to the seriousness of the charges.He has also been blocked from calling himself a social worker within the UK.The Care Council for Wales Conduct Committee said: "The committee has considered all the sanctions available to it and has considered that removal from the register is a proportionate response having regard to the seriousness of the misconducts, the number of incidents of misconduct, and the fact the charges cover a wide range of the registrant's practice.
Charges brought against Mr Jones, at the hearing held by the Care Council for Wales Conduct Committee, included allowing a child to have contact with its dad, in contravention of a Child Protection Agreement, providing false information on oath and allowing unsupervised access to children to take place.A spokeswoman for the CCWC said: "It is essential that the public have, and continue to have, confidence in the social care workforce. "This committee should be seen to be safeguarding this interest and the public in general from acts of misconduct by registrants."
