Have you ever seen the official Risk of Harm Report that the authorities use to file reports about you and your children?  As far as reporters are known they're anonymity is safe, however it is only protected as far as what they are reporting is not false. Once they make a false or misleading disclosure they are no longer protected by such acts and are liable for prosecution.  Any documents you have that can prove this type of offence, make sure you register on our Report DOCs Breach.
