Progress would be monitored against an agreed set of key indicators, by a newly formed performance monitoring group.
RESOLVED:
i) That the delivery plans be endorsed in line with the current strategic outcomes and the responsibilities stated,
ii) That the resource plan for 2012/13, noting a 50% reduction in the Community Safety fund be agreed. |

Key performance indicators (To be tabled) Minutes: NOTED the tabled item – Community Safety Strategy Indicators (June 2012)
A discussion took place and the following was noted:
· Clarity is required on the fire service targets: could be arson-related or a reduction in accidental fires in dwellings – to be pursued · Knife crime should be separated into two sub-sets – general knife crime, and whether a knife is used to injure · Objective 4 – ‘reduce repeat offending’ – needed to be more specific · It was suggested that sanctioned detections for DV may not be the best partnership targets so alternatives should be investigated · A substance misuse target, probably linked to reducing acquisitive crime, awaits final agreement between DAAT and MPS.
The Chair suggested that as the next Community Safety Partnership meeting was not until October, that the decision be delegated to the Performance Monitoring Group so as not to delay the implementation of the targets.
RESOLVED That the final document be signed off by the Performance Monitoring Group before the next meeting of the Community Safety Partnership in October 2012. |

The key will be in using all existing assets to better effect including across the frontline and wider partnership.
RESOLVED to note the update. |

Troubled families update PDF 106 KB Minutes: Howard Jones – Consultant, Children & Young People’s Service – introduced the report as set out in the agenda papers. Since the report had been circulated the borough had 286 families who met at least 2 of the national criteria, with approximately 40 meeting all 3 criteria. The focus was on those families facing the biggest challenges.
Extra capacity was required to drive the process – the service would investigate the most effective ways of working with partners. A new team would be appointed shortly.

RESOLVED that the update be noted. |

Tottenham regeneration plan Minutes: Ann Lippitt – Project Director – provided a presentation the Tottenham Regeneration plan. Copies of the presentation are available on request.
The following responses were provided to questions from the floor:
· There would be clear targets for the area – jobs; quality housing; investment and public realm – and it was important that people were engaged in the project once more. · Tottenham needed to be a place that people wanted to visit, and attractions provided.
The need for a bespoke session with criminal justice partners was raised. This would be used to look in more detail at what can be achieved collectively in the regeneration area and what the contributions and commitments around safety outcomes should be. The Chair asked the Community Safety Manager to work with the Tottenham Team to plan a session sometime in September.
RESOLVED to note the update and plan joint session
