We are currently translating updates to the Welsh versions of each guidance. These will be published soon.
The pilot programme began in June 2021 with 10 pilot sites. Between February and April 2023, 10 additional pilot sites joined, with now 20 pilot sites operating in the pilot.
The general guidance document sets out where the pilot operates, the rationale behind the pilot sites and the requirements of the programme.
Details on decision-making are set out in the decision-making guidance for the pilot sites in England & Wales, and separately for Scotland.
Decisions are taken through a multi-agency structure with representation from the three safeguarding partners: the local authority, health and police.
