Members received an overview of the Corporate Improvement Objective – Safer Brighter Futures – Highlight Report – Quarter 2 (1^st  April – 30^th September) as detailed within the circulated report.

It was highlighted that Looked After Children numbers remain steady at 350 but work is continuing to reduce this number.

Members asked how was the figure of 67.3% of children who remain with families defined? Officers explained that at present work is on-going with the Welsh Government to try to establish a measure to enable this figure to be defined.  The outcome will be brought back to Committee when finalised.
