The Committee resolved :-

(i)            to approve the Justice Social Work Performance Management Framework as a first iteration of work in progress and agree to its implementation by the justice service; and

(ii)          to instruct the Chief Officer (ACHSCP) to use this framework as the basis for a report outlining the performance of the justice service and present this report to RAPC no later than the end of Q1 2022-2023 and then similarly on an annual basis thereafter.

The Committee had before it the report from the Lead for Social Work, ACHSCP which presented the newly-developed Justice Social Work Performance Management Framework.

Members heard a summary of the development of the framework which developed from the recent inspection and included a considerable volume of data gathering and management which was presented to the Social Work Performance Management Board. This enabled more coherent and coordinated discussions to produce Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s).

Members were advised that this was a particularly complex area of the ACHSCP activities and involved national drivers combined with statutory obligations and inter dependency with local Strategy and the ACC Local Outcome Improvement Plan (LOIP).

Members heard that whilst this was the first iteration of the framework, it was intended to continue development which would include output from the forthcoming IJB Workshop.

The report recommended :-

that the Committee –

a)            approve the Justice Social Work Performance Management Framework and agree to its implementation by the justice service; and

b)            instruct the Chief Officer (ACHSCP) to use this framework as the basis for a report outlining the performance of the justice service and present this report to RAPC no later than the end of Q1 2022-2023 and then similarly on an annual basis thereafter.
