Domestic Homicide Review Report Published
The Department of Justice has welcomed the publication of a report on a review carried out by a Domestic Homicide Review Panel.
Domestic Homicide Reviews are carried out by an independent Chair with the support of a panel of representatives from statutory and voluntary and community organisations, who gather and review information pertinent to the case. The process is essentially about learning, to improve services and support families who are living with domestic abuse.
The independent review panel for this case included a range of representatives from organisations including Women's Aid, Health & Social Care Trusts, Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI), Probation Board for Northern Ireland (PBNI) and the Department of Health's Strategic Planning and Performance Group (formerly the Health and Social Care Board) and was chaired by Anne Marks.
The Executive Summary report on the Domestic Homicide Review for 'Ellen' has been published here.
