Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The GMCA Complex Safeguarding hub wishes to obtain Research in Practice’s support with using this resource as part of a pilot with Wigan and Manchester councils (revised approach to peer reviews). This tool will enable local multi-agency partnerships to reflect on eight evidence-led Practice Principles and consider the extent to which these are already present within local responses to child exploitation and extra-familial harm. It aims to support multi-agency partnerships at senior operational and strategic levels to hold constructive and honest conversations about behaviour and culture with a view to strengthening responses and multi-agency relationships.

Decision:

GMCA Complex Safeguarding wishes to pay £2,010 from the Complex Safeguarding Budget (Deputy Mayor Investment Fund) to pay for support from Research in Practice to implement their Tackling Child Exploitation (TCE) partnership self-assessment tool as part of the revised peer review methodology.
