ICS: pilot studies
The pilot studies are divided into two separate projects: an investigation into the impact of the ICS on multi-agency working and the second on the impact of ICS on children's social care.
The documents below are a series of progress reports. The final report for the multi-agency pilot is expected by the end of June 2006. The social services report is due in August of the same year.
Contact details for the pilot sites are available in the latest progress reports.
