Commission multi agency safeguarding adult training. Agree and formalise information sharing arrangements and conduct reviews of serious adult safeguarding cases when needed, conduct multi agency safeguarding adult audits, contribute to the picture of need and risk to target multi agency actions and manage escalation if agencies have not been able to resolve disagreement about safeguarding adult cases."
