The report was not circulated within five clear working days before the committee due to the legal advice that was given on signing the immigration support pledge, which could not wait until the following meeting in April 2024.

Helen Woolgar, assistant director safeguarding and care introduced the report and addressed points with regards to looked after children (LAC) and care leavers with immigration and nationality issues. The pledge includes that looked after children who were British citizens should be given assistance to obtain a British passport.

RESOLVED:

That the report contents of the immigration support pledge be noted.
