Objectives for 2007/08

The objectives for 2007/08 will be to build upon the achievements of previous years in responding to the Every Child Matters Agenda and the Implementation of The Children Act 2004, to establish an effective, dynamic and active Local Safeguarding Children Board for Bath and North East Somerset.  A Board that has broadened its scope and remit and maintained a clear focus on its responsibility to safeguard children.  A Board that will be informed by the views and active participation of children, young people, parents and carers.  A Board that will hold its members to account for their contributions to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.  A Board that will be accountable for its role in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
