The Case Management and Diversity Panel has been set up to ensure that management and reduction of risk by and to young people is monitored through targeted intervention planning, with a multi-agency approach.
 

The young people that are presented at the panel are all DYO cases and MAPPA cases, young people that have been assessed as posing a high or very high risk to others or self, custody cases as well as young people identified by the Police as exhibiting escalating or concerning behaviour as well as caretaking/transfer case. The panel process includes an initial meeting and then a review meeting.

The panel, can be resource intensive due to mandatory attendance of all specialist staff, DYO, case managers etc. and is also chaired by service manager.
