The review's central proposal is the creation of specialist child protection teams including social workers, mental health workers, police officers, paediatricians and child psychologists to oversee cases where children are at serious risk of harm.

In both cases serious shortcomings in local child protection practice reflected wider national weaknesses, the report says. Safeguarding was too often ineffective and there was a lack of experience to handle complex and high-risk decisions, it says, requiring a strengthening of local and national safeguarding arrangements.
