This is the list of documents available for the submission Motion by Councillor Blair Anderson:- "Council notes the recent publication by the Glasgow Joint Public Protection Committees of the Learning Review Report into the handling of the case of Family C. Council accepts, as one party to a multi-agency system, that "a range of professional agencies missed opportunities to intervene and protect the children" of Family C, in the words of the chair of the Child Protection Committee, Colin Anderson. Council apologises to the children of Family C for this failure and commends them for their resilience and courage in bringing the perpetrators of this abuse to justice. Council understands that an Improvement Plan is to be developed and implemented following publication of the Learning Review Report, and recognises the desire of many elected members for transparency around this development and implementation process. Council, while noting the role of the Integrated Joint Board in relation to children's services and children's social work, believes that improved scrutiny, transparency and accountability is required for matters related to child protection and child welfare, particularly in relation to corporate parenting, children's rights, looked after children, and children at risk of becoming looked after. Council instructs the Chief Executive, working with colleagues in the Integrated Joint Board, to bring forward a paper which includes proposals for improving the scrutiny, transparency and accountability for matters related to child protection and child welfare; this paper should be presented to relevant committees as soon as practicable and no later than the end of this Council term.".
