Item 6 - Thematic Review: Perpetrators (G21/18)

Summary 

In February 2017 Grants Committee members agreed to a revised commissioning performance management framework to manage the London Councils 2017-21 Grants Programme. To enable the Grants Committee to examine issues that affect a number of the London Councils priorities the framework includes thematic reviews as part of the reporting timetable. 
This report is the second of these thematic reviews and focuses on issues relating to perpetrators of sexual and domestic violence. The report focuses on the increased role of local authorities in this area, including activities funded through the London Councils Grants Programme. Two providers from the 2017-21 programme will deliver a presentation highlighting their role in this area. 

Recommendations 

The Grants Committee is asked to
- Extend a thank you to the representatives from Tender Education and Arts and Respect for providing the thematic review presentations.
- Agree to send this report to the London Councils Executive member for crime and public protection.
- Agree to share this report and the project information in the 2017-21 report on this agenda, with their local authority to ensure that officers are aware of the activities regarding perpetrators that are commissioned through the programme.
- Agree to share information on the Respect Standard (outlined in paragraphs 2.7 and 3.1 to 3.4) with their local authority and consider making the Standard a requirement (achieved/working towards) when commissioning perpetrator interventions locally.
