Updates from partners were also included at Appendix A of the report. Cllr Cazimoglu recorded thanks to the SAB and all partners and Council officers for their work.

In response to Members’ questions, the importance of feedback via community engagement was stressed. Details were also provided in respect of Enfield’s work with Assistive Technology which had proved a very effective tool to keep people safe and improve the lives of vulnerable residents.

DECISION:  The Cabinet agreed:

I.  To note the Annual Report. Noting the report at Cabinet, Scrutiny and Council enables Enfield Council to demonstrate its commitment to safeguarding adults at risk throughout the organisation. The report is a partnership document and as such is agreed at the Safeguarding Adults Board.

II.  To commend the report to the November Council meeting for noting.

The report sets out the options considered, if any, and the reasons for the recommendations and the decision.
