The minutes of the 2nd July 2018 were agreed as a correct record.

In addition, the Committee:

  • Noted a report on unemployment and how LAC and care leavers are supported into employment, education and training would be discussed at January 2019 meeting of CPAC. In that report, requested an update be provided on what measures the Council had in place to promote apprenticeships within the borough and how those opportunities were made available to our LAC and care leavers (Action: Sarah Alexander/Emma Cummergen).  
  • Noted regular updates on Ofsted would be provided at CPAC meetings.
  • Requested an explanation of ‘suitable’ and ‘unsuitable’ housing (as discussed in the Performance Report at July 2018 CPAC meeting) to be circulated before next CPAC meeting (Action: Ann Graham/Clerk).
  • Noted the update on the regionalisation of adoption provided by the Chair. A report had intended to be presented at September 2018 Cabinet, however, regional arrangements were still in development and it was anticipated the report would be presented to Cabinet in early 2019. It was highlighted that working with neighbouring authorities was crucial in securing arrangements that would work for Haringey Council (Action: Chair/ongoing).
