If so, please provide details If not, explain why It has been considered but no areas for change were identified. Equality Impact Screening and Human Rights Section F - Initial Impact Screening - decision checklist - ( to be completed by Policy Officer/Assessor) 6.1 What is the purpose of the policy? The purpose of the policy is to have procedures in place to deal effectively with incidents of abuse towards adults at risk where a preventative strategy has failed. Thus protecting the life and well being of those individuals and others which may be affected. 6.2 Does the policy contain any potential interference with an individual s rights as set out in the Convention Articles listed within the Human Rights Act? (the articles most likely to impact are listed within the guidance notes at Appendix 'A') In protecting the rights of the adults at risk there is the potential that there could be some intereference to the rights of others: Article 8: The right to private and family life Article 5: The right to liberty and security 6.3 Does the policy contain a statement explaining what the specific legal basis is for any potential interference within the Human Rights Act? Explain in full (including whether the interference is justifiable, necessary and proportionate) The primary aim of the policy and its associated working practices is the safeguarding of the adult at risk. Therefore there may be cases where contact between an individual and an adult at risk is not allowed during the course of an investigation in order to safeguard the adult at risk. 6
7 The deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) were introduced into the MCA by the Mental Health Act The DoLS are designed to protect adults who lack mental capacity, against decisions depriving them of their liberty, by providing a proper legal process and protection in situations where deprivation of liberty is considered to meet the criteria within the key principles of the MCA (best interests and least restrictive option). The policy makes reference to a wide range of law around the safeguarding of adults including the obligations placed upon the state to protect individuals from harm. 6.4 What are the positive/adverse impacts of the implementation of the policy? Explain in full Prevention of further abuse and harm Clear guidance in place for staff dealing with Safeguarding Adult issues Clear links to other related areas of criminality Enhancing of multi-agency co-operation Teatment of adults at risk according to individual need Recognition that an adult at risk does not necessarily lack the capacity to make decisions The existing legal framework for safeguarding adults is complex and it has been recognised by the Law Commission that some areas of adult social care law have been based on discriminatory concepts. Recognition that ability as well as disability must be considered. 6.5 Proceeding to full Equality Impact Assessment? YES 6.6 Date of screening decision 18/09/ Deadline for completing assessment or proposed deferred date N/A 6.8 If NOT proceeding to a full Equality Impact Assessment, complete ONE of the following : Policy Officer s/assessor s reasons for deciding there is insufficient resource to proceed (eg insufficient time, staff, competing priorities, etc): N/A Policy Officer s/assessor s reasons and evidence why it is not necessary to do an assessment on this policy (eg no adverse equality impacts likely within or between equality groups): 7
8 N/A 6.9 Advice taken? Has advice been taken from the Equality & Diversity Department?

Reason to support decision : The organisation requires policy and procedure that is up to date to ensure that operational delivery meets national standards. Failing to proceed with the assessment could lead to a loss of confidence in the service and inequality in service delivery Decision whether to proceed with assessment and supporting comments Reason to support decision : The assessment is authorised as current force policy and practice needs to reflect national changes in legislation and best practice.
