2022/25112 -Child Protection Case Conferences

REQUEST

This is a request for information under the FOI Act. 

Would you please tell me the number of invitations your force received to attend an initial (child protection) case conference for the time period outlined below, and how many of these conferences were attended? 

Just to be clear, I want the figures to represent the number of Initial Case Conferences requiring police attendance (as per agreed Force process) and the number of those attended. I am assuming the information will be based on figures collated by District Safeguarding Units.

I am looking for this information to be broken down per month for the calendar years of 2020 and 2021, as well as the months of January, February and March of 2022. Can you please also provide the total invites/attendance for the whole period (i.e., 01/01/20 to 31/03/22).

RESPONSE

Please see the attached spreadsheet.
