Agenda item

This item had not been circulated five clear days in advance of the meeting. The chair agreed to accept this item as urgent as the committee were considering their work plan for 2011/12 and the outcomes of the Safeguarding and Looked After Children Inspection would support members in determining the work plan and prioritising issues for consideration. Following the publication of the Inspection Outcomes on the 10 July 2012 it was important that committee were made aware of the information as a matter of urgency to enable them to consider priorities for improvements on its looked after children. The consideration of the report provided sufficient time for officers to produce a detailed action plan for the next committee.

RESOLVED:

1.  That the Inspection report and priorities identified for improvement be noted.

2.  That the deputy director specialist children’s services brings a detailed plan to the next corporate parenting committee on how the improvements will be implemented.
