This decision seeks approval for the continuation and expansion of Digital Policing (DP) ESN Strategic Project Team resources for the period commencing start of October 2022 to end of March 2024 (18 months).

This is required in order that the MPS can progress ESN activities to prepare the MPS for transition from Airwave to ESN in conjunction with the Home Office Emergency Services Mobile Communications Programme (ESMCP).
The MPS and its partners in the 3 Emergency Services (3ES) have no option other than to transition to ESN in order to maintain access to a national mission critical voice solution past the Home Office advised National Airwave Shut-Down date (currently circa. 2028). Failure to transition is untenable as without critical voice communication the MPS would be unable to discharge its responsibilities effectively and the resultant Health and Safety risk to Officers, Staff and members of the Public would be unacceptable.

The MOPAC Research Services contract includes provision of public voice surveys. These surveys enable MOPAC to monitor progress around core areas of the Police and Crime Plan (PCP) and oversight of the MPS. The current contract will expire at the end of FY 22-23. Due to a variety of resourcing issues it is not possible to recruit a new provider in time for an April 23 start.
The DMPC is therefore asked to approve a contract variation to extend delivery of services by the current supplier - Opinion Research Services (ORS) - for an additional 12-months. The variation is associated with annual costs (FY 23/24) of £1,098,785.

MOPAC is currently working in partnership with the MoJ and Kent PCC to pilot the Harm and Adverse Experience Network (HAVEN) service in Cookham Wood Young Offenders Institution (YOI) which recognises and responds to children’s past experiences of victimisation as a driver of offending behaviour (PCD 849 and PCD 880).
This Decision seeks agreement to extend the existing provision within YOI Cookham Wood for 2023/24 and to procure a provider to expand the provision of support for young victims to deliver in HMYOI Feltham for 2023-2025. The recommendations below outline the financial commitment needed from MOPAC and seek agreement to accept scale up funding from the GLA’s New Deal for Young People (NDYP). Scaling up this pilot will enable more boys to be supported to cope and recover from experiences of victimisation and trauma and will also allow for more robust evaluation findings.

MOPAC manages the Youth 2 Adult Hub, a pilot project for young adults on probation in Newham which aims to reduce reoffending, improve mental health and increase access to pro-social opportunities.

This would involve accepting a total of £578,000 funding from London Probation, the Barrow Cadbury Trust and LB Newham towards continuation of services and committing £530,000 to the extension from the Commissioning & Partnership Directorate’s approved core funding in 2022/23.
