Hello GEM group
- we have received a number of enquiries over the past week or two about
safety checks for people supervising children and vulnerable adults.
As a result SWMLAC will be issuing an advisory notice about this, probably
on Monday. I know this subject is a concern to some members of the GEM
e-group, so it will be circulated to you on release. It won't be a
comprehensive set of guidelines, but may prove helpful. It will of course
be reviewed as the position becomes clearer.
The note is being assembled following consultation with colleagues from
different offices/agencies.
