Joint Committee for Children and Young People

Introduction
 

The Joint Committee on Children and Young People includes the appropriate range of community planning in its agreed membership.

Its remit is to:

"Enable children and young people to achieve their full potential, by improving services for children, young people and families and promoting their participation in decision making, paying particular attention to children in need and young people who are socially excluded."

Integrated services have developed incrementally since the late 1990s - involving strong political leadership, encouraging genuine committment across agencies - effective at the key organisational levels and in an ever increasing number of areas of delivery.
