The court has concluded that Norway has not violated the European Convention on Human Rights, Rett24 writes.

One case concerns a decision to refuse to return a child after a care takeover and involves the level of contact. The second case concerns a decision on a care takeover and also involves the level of contact.

Elements of violence were present in both child welfare cases.
