Issue - meetings

• Youth Justice Annual Report
• Knife Crime Campaign

Mr Matthew Knights introduced the report.

In relation to Haringey Youth Justice Annual report, the meeting welcomed the report and heard:

·         High harm crimes, such as the use of firearms were still frequent. Embedding the understanding into daily work and ensuring early prevention for schools and universities would be useful. Working with education to make strategic gains through schools for long term aspiration would help ensure reduction of violence.

·         Community Safety colleagues were commended for supporting a number of different initiatives and working with the different partners across the system. Being able to deal with some of these issues had to be done in partnership with shared resources.

·         It was notable that there were high rates of young people not in education, employment or training.

RESOLVED:

To note the report.
