Working Together to Safeguard Children. 2018 (role of partner agencies in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and new local multi-agency safeguarding arrangements) Data Protection Xxx 0000 and the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (rules and controls governing how personal data is processed and protected by organisations, businesses and government) Each local authority in England is required to establish a local Safeguarding Children Partnership (Working Together 2018). Constituent partners of the Worcestershire Safeguarding Children Partnership are acting as joint data controllers for the purposes of co-ordinating and monitoring the effectiveness of local safeguarding children arrangements activities. A summary of the data held by WSCP and how it uses it can be found at Appendix 1. Each partner agency is the data controller for the Personal Identifiable Data (PID) which it holds. Complaints regarding inappropriate disclosure of PID should be addressed by the data controllers for the agency concerned. It is anticipated that partner agencies will have procedures in place to address complaints relating to inappropriate disclosure or failure to disclose personal information. Worcestershire County Council (WCC) will be the data controller for any Personal Identifiable Data generated and held by the Worcestershire Safeguarding Children Partnership (such as for the purposes of commissioning auditors/trainers, or reports generated from case reviews or audits). The WSCP does not deliver any direct services to children, young people and families, however to fulfil its statutory functions it may be necessary to share confidential case-specific information at meetings which deliver statutory functions on behalf of the Partnership. Examples of such meetings are the Child Safeguarding Practice Review Board and the Quality Assurance Practice and Procedures Board. The Chair of the meeting will ensure that a Confidentiality Statement is made at the start of the meeting and that all parties understand their responsibilities in respect of information sharing. Exchange of information may be verbal or written, however data protection principles must still apply with attendees only being present where it is appropriate for them to share and/or receive the information. Attendees at meetings convened by the WSCP will be asked to sign an attendance list which will confirm their individual compliance with the Confidentiality Statement (Appendix 2). Notes taken at meetings where confidential info...

  • Global Safeguard Measures Each Party retains its rights and obligations under Article XIX of the GATT 1994 and the WTO Agreement on Safeguards. In taking measures under these WTO provisions, a Party shall, consistent with WTO law and jurisprudence and in accordance with its domestic legislation, exclude imports of an originating product from one or several Parties if such imports do not in and of themselves cause or threaten to cause serious injury.

  • Safeguard Measures The Parties note the multilateral negotiations pursuant to Article X of GATS on the question of emergency safeguard measures based on the principle of non-discrimination. Upon the conclusion of such multilateral negotiations, the Parties shall conduct a review for the purpose of discussing appropriate amendments to this Agreement so as to incorporate the results of such multilateral negotiations.

  • Bilateral Safeguard Measures 1. Where, as a result of the reduction or elimination of a customs duty under this Agreement, any product originating in a Party is being imported into the territory of another Party in such increased quantities, in absolute terms or relative to domestic production, and under such conditions as to constitute a substantial cause of serious injury or threat thereof to the domestic industry of like or directly competitive products in the territory of the importing Party, the importing Party may take bilateral safeguard measures to the minimum extent necessary to remedy or prevent the injury, subject to the provisions of paragraphs 2 to 10. 2. Bilateral safeguard measures shall only be taken upon clear evidence that increased imports have caused or are threatening to cause serious injury pursuant to an investigation in accordance with the procedures laid down in the WTO Agreement on Safeguards. 3. The Party intending to take a bilateral safeguard measure under this Article shall immediately, and in any case before taking a measure, make notification to the other Parties and the Joint Committee. The notification shall contain all pertinent information, which shall include evidence of serious injury or threat thereof caused by increased imports, a precise description of the product involved and the proposed measure, as well as the proposed date of introduction, expected duration and timetable for the progressive removal of the measure. A Party that may be affected by the measure shall be offered compensation in the form of substantially equivalent trade liberalisation in relation to the imports from any such Party. 4. If the conditions set out in paragraph 1 are met, the importing Party may take measures consisting in increasing the rate of customs duty for the product to a level not to exceed the lesser of: (a) the MFN rate of duty applied at the time the action is taken; or (b) the MFN rate of duty applied on the day immediately preceding the date of the entry into force of this Agreement. 5. Bilateral safeguard measures shall be taken for a period not exceeding one year. In very exceptional circumstances, after review by the Joint Committee, measures may be taken up to a total maximum period of three years. No measure shall be applied to the import of a product which has previously been subject to such a measure. 6. The Joint Committee shall within 30 days from the date of notification examine the information provided under paragraph 3 in order to facilitate a mutually acceptable resolution of the matter. In the absence of such resolution, the importing Party may adopt a measure pursuant to paragraph 4 to remedy the problem, and, in the absence of mutually agreed compensation, the Party against whose product the measure is taken may take compensatory action. The bilateral safeguard measure and the compensatory action shall be immediately notified to the other Parties and the Joint Committee. In the selection of the bilateral safeguard measure and the compensatory action, priority must be given to the measure which least disturbs the functioning of this Agreement. The compensatory action shall normally consist of suspension of concessions having substantially equivalent trade effects or concessions substantially equivalent to the value of the additional duties expected to result from the bilateral safeguard measure. The Party taking compensatory action shall apply the action only for the minimum period necessary to achieve the substantially equivalent trade effects and in any event, only while the measure under paragraph 4 is being applied. 7. Upon the termination of the measure, the rate of customs duty shall be the rate which would have been in effect but for the measure. 8. In critical circumstances, where delay would cause damage which would be difficult to repair, a Party may take a provisional emergency measure pursuant to a preliminary determination that there is clear evidence that increased imports constitute a substantial cause of serious injury, or threat thereof, to the domestic industry. The Party intending to take such a measure shall immediately notify the other Parties and the Joint Committee thereof. Within 30 days of the date of the notification, the procedures set out in paragraphs 2 to 6, including for compensatory action, shall be initiated. Any compensation shall be based on the total period of application of the provisional emergency measure and of the emergency measure. 9. Any provisional measure shall be terminated within 200 days at the latest. The period of application of any such provisional measure shall be counted as part of the duration of the measure set out in paragraph 5 and any extension thereof. Any tariff increases shall be promptly refunded if the investigation described in paragraph 2 does not result in a finding that the conditions of paragraph 1 are met. 10. Five years after the date of entry into force of this Agreement, the Parties shall review in the Joint Committee whether there is need to maintain the possibility to take safeguard measures between them. If the Parties decide, after the first review, to maintain such possibility, they shall thereafter conduct biennial reviews of this matter in the Joint Committee.
