This operational decision seeks approval to
implement a new Youth Justice Service structure
in Bury following Cabinet approval to end the shared arrangement
with Rochdale and re establish a standalone YJS.
The new model creates a single integrated service, bringing
together statutory youth justice functions and prevention services.
This aligns with national best practice and strengthens early
intervention, diversion, and risk management.
