The Katie Simpson Review

The Independent Review was commissioned by the Minister in the absence of an alternative review mechanism, such as a Domestic Homicide Review or a PPANI Serious Case Review, due to the specific circumstances of the case. The Review considers how agencies responded to risk, identifies failings, and sets out clear recommendations to strengthen safeguarding, and enhance transparency and accountability across the justice system and partner organisations. Dr Jan Melia, the author of the report, will co-ordinate and chair an implementation group to take forward the findings.
