A report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services (copy attached).

The Sub Committee received a report from the Director of Community and Children’s Services regarding the City of London Safeguarding Adults Annual Report 2012/13. Officers gave an overview of the safeguarding alerts received by the Adult Social Care team and Members were advised that, as part of the Health and Social Care Act 2012, Safeguarding Adult Boards would become statutory.

In response to Members questions, it was noted that the Adult Social Care team had ten officers in total including three social workers. Members discussed some typographical mistakes and errors included in the report, and were assured that a quality assurance process was being implemented to ensure this did not happen again.
