Furthermore, the possibility of allowing the permanence of minors in the structure and therefore the functioning of the same was ascertained by the Area, since the Legal Representative of the Congregation of the Disciples of Saint Teresa of the Child Jesus sent other nuns to replace those removed, guaranteeing in thus the right ratio between the number of children hosted and the operators for the functioning of the reception facility.
