Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans she has to publish the findings of research commissioned by the Home Office and Department for Education, conducted by Liverpool John Moores University, on the effectiveness of multi-agency safeguarding partnerships in dealing with young people at risk or involved in serious violence and county lines.

The Home Office is working collaboratively across Government and with operational partners to strengthen the local safeguarding response to child criminal exploitation.

Alongside the Department for Education, the Home Office has worked with Liverpool John Moores University to understand the effectiveness of multi-agency safeguarding partnerships in supporting young people at risk of or involved in serious violence and county lines.

Having received the final research, we are considering the best way to share learning with local areas and build the findings from the deep dive into future policy.
