Theme 3: Opportunities and activities for young people, particularly vulnerable young people 3.1 Haringey is classed as an ‘Outer London’ borough. The Panel feels that the challenges the borough faces are as significant as those of inner London boroughs and should be resourced as such by central government. 3.2 Make the most of the range of local positive activities provided across sectors for young people, with a focus on what works in improving their prospects. 3.3 Secure and target resources to support vulnerable young people so that no young person who is in need goes without support. 3.4 Young people in Tottenham often have limited personal space inside their homes. Young people should have access to a range of communal safe spaces that they enjoy and where they can engage with their peers and with services that support them. 3.5 Take positive steps to open up local employment opportunities for young people. 3.6 Businesses should play a key role in building a culture of aspiration, preparing young people for the workplace and creating employment opportunities. Commitment Who Lead person Following the well supported local campaign, ‘A Fair Deal for Haringey Children’ the Department for Education have acknowledged that the current Area Cost Adjustment under-funds our schools.

Theme 4: The relationship between the police and the community 4.1 The structures used by the police to engage with the community should be reviewed to ensure that the local community is empowered, especially at times of crisis. 4.2 Frequent changes of personnel are damaging and hamper police efforts to build strong relationships in the local area. There should be continuity in management at the highest levels. 4.3 Address the culture and training of the local police force to tackle divisive perceptions of ‘them and us’ and to put the community at the heart of policing. 4.4 Being able to successfully engage with communities is an important skill for police officers that is undervalued. Recognition and reward for community engagement skills in the police career structure should be improved and officers who have developed these skills accorded higher status. 4.5 Address the low level of police presence in the community. 4.6 Significantly improve the practice and scrutiny of Stop and Search and Stop and Account. 4.7 Make local arrangements for dealing with complaints more widely known and understood in order to prevent escalation of issues. 4.8 Strengthen community involvement in delivering community safety objectives in neighbourhoods Commitment to

Data on the use of Stop and Search and Stop and Account powers in Haringey in June 2012 shows a reduction of over 50% in the number of stops made compared to June 2011. Arrest rates have increased from 8.6% to 14.4% over the same period. (source: http://www.met.police.uk/foi/units/stop_and_search.htm) In relation to the practice and scrutiny of Stop and Search and Stop and Account: • At July 2012: Haringey Police has issued no s60 authorisations since February this year • At July 2012: Haringey Senior Leadership Team has personally briefed all officers on the Commissioner’s vision

that Stop and Search is a tactic to be used in tackling violence and making our streets safer. Emphasis was placed on the importance of ‘how’ we conduct stop and search and the impact this has on community confidence. Stop and search is now more intelligence driven. We are focused on ensuring we search the right people, in the right locations and for the right reasons.

• Ongoing: Haringey Police holds a monthly Stop Search Action Group meeting. The agenda includes: positive outcome rates, the number of negative drug searches, the percentage of weapon searches, persons stopped on more than 5 occasions, and complaints data relating to stop and search. Trend and officer data is scrutinised.

• Ongoing: Haringey Police continues to engage with the Haringey Stop Search Monitoring Group. We are currently in dialogue with the College of North East London, aiming to conduct via workshops and a questionnaire, a capture of young people’s experience of stop and search the outcomes of which will inform police stop and search practices. October start dates have been agreed for this work.
