## Notice

Southend-on-Sea City Council is looking to a continue usage of a web based solution to manage and maintain procedures and guidance within the Children's Ser-vices Department (currently Tri.X online). The system will be updated when statutory guidance changes, legislation changes and local processes change. The frequency of update is expected to be twice a year.

The system must allow the Public to view the latest procedures online.
