However, this does not have to be through the provision of one representative who can undertake all aspects of the role. Originally multi agency MARAC representatives were expected to be middle managers or equivalent, so that they are able to gather and present information from colleagues and also commit to specific actions, with the appropriate resources, without having to seek further authorisation. Southend MARAT are not specifying the level the representatives are required to be at, as each partner agency will be held accountable for ensuring their arrangements for representation are adequate.
