Comments invited on changes to the London Child Protection Procedures: Part A; section 4.1.22 - 'If the initial conference was a pre-birth conference...'

* 2. It is suggested that the relevant section of the CP Procedures should be amended to say that:

• If the initial conference was a pre-birth conference, a Review Conference or Core Group should be held within 10 days of the birth. If the decision is made to hold a core group, then it is particularly important to ensure that all relevant health professionals attend.

The purpose of this change is to encourage good practice in holding pre-birth conferences at an early stage in a pregnancy, thereby allowing Public Law Outline proceedings to start if necessary. Please comment below:
