Spanish term

Acogimiento Familiar Administrativo

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general)
This term appears in a legal document for adoption from the Canary Islands.

Context: El primer compareciente en su calidad de Director General..... y los segundos en su propio nombre y derecho, reconociendose mutuamente la capacidad legal necesaria y suficiente para la formalizacion del presente documento de **ACOGIMIENTO FAMILIAR ADMINISTRATIVO** en la modalidad de permanente y reumnerado previo informe favorable de la intervencion delegada y supeditado a las disponibilidadees presupuestarias para el menor de los hermanos en cuyo merito libre y espontaneamente.... EXPONEN

I have found out what kind of adoption this is:

Acogimiento familiar administrativo: es el que formaliza la Entidad Pública, mediante
contrato, siempre que los padres o tutores del menor expresen su consentimiento.

as opposed to

2. Acogimiento familiar judicial: es el que se constituye por auto del juez a propuesta de la
Entidad Pública, cuando los padres biológicos o tutores no acceden voluntariamente al
acogimiento de los menores o no ha podido recabarse su consentimiento por estar en
paradero desconocido o no haber comparecido.

but am not sure whether how to accurately translate this. Has anyone come across this before and if so, how did you translate it.

I think you're right re the difference: "public/private fostering" certainly match the definitions you have.
Note from asker:
Hi Edward. I like this but it doesn't explain whether it is voluntary or not. Is the private/judicial the same difference as voluntary/not voluntary?

Reference:

Placement Order (with parental consent)

I think you could use 'Placement order with parental consent' but I am not 100% sure.

See reference published by the Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service and check their website - a lot of info on this provided.

Please note that the 'acogimiento familiar administrativo' is initiated by the Local Authority as a child protection measure.

A private fostering arrangement is essentially one that is made privately (that is to say without the involvement of a local authority) for the care of a child under the age of 16 (under 18, if disabled) by someone other than a parent or close relative with the intention that it should last for 28 days or more

They are completely different concepts.

On the other hand, reading more about this subject, it seems to be that Placement Orders are for adoption purposes rather than fostering, so this term would not be useful in this case either.
