Informing local inquiries: developing local reviews in adult protection

Abstract

A role available to adult protection committees is the consideration of local issues and making recommendations to promote protection locally. While policy development in health and social care has been the result, at times, of national inquiries, local inquiries also provide valuable opportunities to explore issues, to reflect and to learn. This article considers the processes through which local inquiries or reviews may be developed.
