Monitoring, Evaluation and Performance Committee

This committee carries out a quality assurance role for the North Somerset Safeguarding Children Board (NSSCB) and its partners.

It monitors and evaluates the effectiveness of their individual and collective work by examining records to establish the quality and effectiveness of multi-agency working.

It does this in relation to the NSSCB's statutory duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children and young people within the district.

It provides relevant information and advice to enable improvement and will make recommendations on how work can be carried out more effectively.

It also provides a forum where professional differences and specific case complaints can be discussed and resolved.
