Text
Domestic homicide reviews provide organisations with an opportunity to reflect on policy and procedure and determine whether those can be amended or improved. They are vital because they keep people who are at risk of domestic abuse safer. To date, four executive summaries have been published. Some of their recommendations have already been implemented, and work to implement the remaining ones is under way.
