To receive a report on the unregulated and unregistered provision protocol in Cheshire East.

The committee received the report which outlined the challenges locally and nationally in relation to the use of unregulated and unregistered provision for cared for children.

RESOLVED:

That the Children and Families Committee:

1.    Consider the challenges leading to the use of unregulated and unregistered placements, the extent of the use of these placements in Cheshire East, and the implications for children and young people in these placements

2.    Scrutinise the protocol to ensure it effectively safeguards children in these arrangements and that there is appropriate oversight from the Executive Director of Children’s Services
