Minutes:

36.1    This item was introduced by Martin Farrelly, General Manager, Community Assessment, and Michelle Jenkins, Safeguarding Adults Manager.

 

36.2    Members noted that the report they had received was clearly a rough draft and was not of satisfactory quality; the material tabled should have been better presented and contextualised.

 

36.3    Mr Farrelly offered to try and get the figures presented in the Safeguarding report broken down by council ward.

 

36.4    Mr Farrelly and Ms Jenkins answered questions on matters including: the risks posed by direct payment, and the recourse available for people directly employing carers who fail to deliver according to their contracts.

 

36.5    RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
