ABSTRACT
The Area Child Protection Committee (ACPC) is a multi-disciplinary group comprising senior representatives from all local child protection agencies. Its role is to organise and oversee the operation of child protection procedures in the locality. ACPCs each produce a local manual of guidance on policy and procedure. To obtain a copy, write to the local chair. A small fee to cover costs is usually payable. See Working Together, Chapter 4, for further information.
