The panel’s decision

The panel has decided to adopt the case. The panel agree that more clarity is needed to understand what's motivating Patrick's behaviour toward ethnic groups at school and on his swim team.

They feel it would be beneficial to know whether the father was having an overt influence on these behaviours, or whether they could address the concerns and help repair Patrick's relationships with his mother and brother. This would clarify Patrick's level of engagement with a terrorist group, cause or ideology.

Continue to see who from the panel may be able to help assess that risk and perhaps challenge or divert him from potentially dangerous views.
