About

The Corporate Parent Advisory Committee advises the council on matters concerning children in its care. It aims to develop councillors' expertise in issues affecting Looked After Children, advocating for their interests and monitoring the work of the council and other agencies to ensure positive outcomes. The committee provides formal comments on proposals and policy decisions, and consults with Looked After Children to understand and respond to their views. It also benchmarks good practice with other local authorities and reports annually on its activities to the Cabinet, Scrutiny Panel, and the Council.
