Contract for an Appropriate Adult Service (THIS CONTRACT IS AWARDED)
Durham County Councilservices
What the buyer wrote
To provide an appropriate adult under the PACE Code of Practice 1984 to support children and mentally vulnerable adults when they are told their rights and entitlements; when they are interviewed; and when they are charged with an offence. This is a statutory requirement for children, and good practice for vulnerable adults. Where a parent or guardian is not able to attend then the Local Authority is required to provide an appropriate adult (inspection of Youth Offending 2011).
