It is my understanding that unless devolved to another organisation under a Section 75 agreement, children’s social services remains the responsibility of the local authority. Local authorities who have also had their budgets cut - you know this. I’m not making it political just pointing out the reality - councils and police have seen cuts, we both agree on that yes?
GMP clearly did not have the resource to investigate, that’s what that MEN article says.
This was 16 years ago, were budgets being cut then?
Thought that was the boom years with record public spending/borrowing?
