Implementation of Actions from SARs
9.1 The NYSAB is responsible for ensuring any learning identified within the report has clear recommendations to action change. These recommendations MUST be SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time bound). Actions are integrated, where ever possible, with the wider strategic aims of the NYSAB.
9.2 The LAR is responsible for identifying an owner for each action and monitoring the actions on the composite action plan. It is the responsibility of NYSAB members to ensure that learning and service change from any safeguarding review is understood, embedded and evidenced with their organisation. NYSAB members will be held accountable for these actions at board meetings. Regular reports on the work of LAR include ‘live’ referrals and reviews and the composite action plan will be presented to the NYSAB by the LAR chair
9.3 An action plan will be held by the LAR who will meet a minimum of four times a year to review and check progress on each action.
9.4 Any actions relating to areas of work within the remit of NYSAB subgroups will be passed to them. These actions are owned by the relevant subgroup chair who will be expected to submit regular updates to the LAR.
9.5 For recommendations arising from a Single Agency Review, it will be the responsibility of that agency to oversee and implement any actions identified and report back to the LAR.
