Report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services.

The Sub Committee received a report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services, setting out the issues around child exploitation in the City of London.  Members noted that the City of London Corporation holds a Multi-Agency Child Exploitation and Vulnerable Adolescent Forum on a bimonthly basis, and the report outlined the work of the Forum and the action plan for 2022-23.

Members also noted the covert work undertaken by plain clothes officers in  visiting front line hotel staff; offering training if required.  The Chair commended this approach, which has been in place for a number of years and has proved to be highly effective.

RESOLVED, that – the report be noted.
