MOSMAN MUNICIPAL COUNCIL
Dear Madam Mayor and Councillors
CHILD PROTECTION - IDENTIFIED GAPS IN SERVICE
Further to the recent seminars organised by concerned Mosman Parents for Child
Protection in Mosman Junior Sport Clubs, this is to confirm a number of
identified gaps in the current service.
In addition this letter is requesting Mosman Council's support, possibly by a
Community Development & Support Expenditure [CDSE] grant, to implement "an
inclusive, effective and local community based Network" to address the problems
identified.
The identified Gaps include:
A Clubs do not allocate funds for Child Protection
B Volunteers not checked due to difficulty retaining Volunteers
C Sponsorship payments not spent on Child Protection and Skill Development
D Concern by Sponsors for measurable return on Sponsorship
E Lack of expertise on Information Technology costs
F opposing Council Policies who responsible for Child Protection
The details with links to evidence can be reviewed in the letter to the Mayor
