Decrease in QL52 flags update
Mark Haworth (MH) provided an update on behalf of Ann-Marie Salwey. The
decrease in the number of crimes with a QL52 flag can be attributed to previous
miscoding of crimes. Approximately 200 cases had previously been allocated to an
incorrect closure code. Cleveland Police are aware of this issue and DS Suzanne
Mills (SM) is working to establish appropriate codes to ensure information is
captured accurately.

TEWV Data Update
Karen Agar reported that around 90% of TEWV staff have received safeguarding
training. The decrease in the number of contacts reported into Safeguarding
suggests that the training is effective and staff are making appropriate decisions
when concerns are raised. TEWV will continue to monitor this.

Actions from Q3 Report
The Q3 Performance Report has been updated to incorporate feedback from the
previous TSAB meeting. The performance leads from each LA have recently met
to review the data collection tables and to agree data submissions for 2018/19.

Data from CQC website
Angela Legg (AL) has reviewed the published data from the CQC website. The
data is informative and will be incorporated into the End of Year Report and the
Annual Report. In future the information will be captured periodically in the quarterly
Performance Reports. The End of Year Report will be available for consideration
at the September TSAB meeting.

conducted after a period of 12 months.

as part of the PAQ Sub-Group update. Stephen McCarthy, the author of the report,
was invited to attend a future TSAB meeting in order to clarify some of the content
of the report. He has responded to say that as they are London based this would
not be viable, but has offered to respond to any queries by email or Skype.
Members agreed not to progress this item further.

TSAB Development Day
The TSAB Development Day took place in March. It was noted that there was
limited involvement from Chairs of other Boards and elected members (other than
SBC). AB advised that arrangements are being made to meet with other Board
members / Chairs to promote partnership working and shared priorities.

Crown Prosecution Service (CPS)
MH advised that Cleveland Police have been allocated a bespoke CPS lawyer,
Charlotte Dennison, to review cases that Cleveland Police consider should have

currently operating in North and South Yorkshire. MH provided information about
CPS success rates which may be impacting on the types of cases which do/do not
progress. Cleveland Police expect to see an increase in prosecutions as a result of
