Civil orders for sexual and violent offending

This session will focus on the initial thought processes of policing when a Child Sexual Abuse complaint is reported. It will cover detail explaining where calls/reports generally come from and what the immediate/long term Safeguarding concerns are, such as bail conditions. It will then go on to explain the Gathering Evidence expectations as well as the expectations from the Multi-agency Process. The input will also talk about the burden of proof which the police need to meet before the CPS will authorise charges, as well as dispelling myths which surround the term NFA (No Further Action). The session will finish off by highlighting some of the disruption measures that policing can use to best safeguard victims whilst restricting opportunities for the perpetration of sexual abuse
