The Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2015 – Part 3 now places a legal duty upon the Falkirk Children’s Commission Planning Group (FCCPG) to produce an Integrated Children’s Services Plan.
As a result, the FCCPG is consulting on the draft Integrated Children’s Services Plan 2016 – 2019. In order for the plan to be delivered, the Children’s Commission Leadership Group has also reviewed the Children’s Commission Structure. The proposed structure reduces the number of groups and aims to streamline the reporting processes, in response to feedback from Commission members.
The draft plan and structure are available on the GIRFEC Practitioner webpage.
The closing date for responses is Wednesday 19th October. This will be the last chance for comments on the structure and the plan. Both will be presented to the Community Planning Partnership Leadership Board in November for approval.
To submit your response to the drafts, please contact the Children’s Commission Planning Group by email: girfec@falkirk.gov.uk
