Minutes:
The Executive received the report from the Director of Children and Families which set out a three year partnership plan for children and families in Brent which built on the achievements of the previous Children and Young People’s Plan (2010-12) and brought together in one document the vision and key priorities for improving outcomes for children and families in Brent. Councillor Arnold (Lead Member, Children and Families) commended the Plan to members which she considered to be both ambitious and easily accessible. Notwithstanding central government’s decision to remove the statutory requirement for the publication of a Children and Young People’s Plan the council, along with some other local authorities, would continue to produce a single plan for children and young people which demonstrated commitment to improve outcomes for children driven by Brent Children’s Partnership. Members’ attention was drawn to the main priorities, action plan and performance management scheme. The Plan had been developed following wide consultation, Councillor Arnold reminded the Executive that everyone had a role to play its success and welcomed the report and the Plan.
RESOLVED:-
that agreement be given to the content of the PCFB and that it be noted that the priorities and outcomes would be fully integrated in service area plans and priorities.
