Local Safeguarding Adults
Board
The Care Act 2014
makes it a statutory requirement that all areas have boards which
as a minimum include representatives from the police, clinical
commissioning group and local authority. The guidance emphasised
the links with local children’s safeguarding boards and
health and wellbeing boards. There is no guidance about whether
elected members should be members of the board but in practice
Authorities usually invite the relevant Cabinet Member to
attend.
