20. Serious Case Reviews (Updated 2022)

Action Plan

Standard - The SMB Chair monitors progress of the Action Plan

20.29 The SCR Report should include recommendations from the SCR author and an Action Plan developed by the SMB. Agencies should agree actions and update the SMB Chair with the progress of actions assigned to them. The SMB Chair in turn should monitor the Action Plan and update the National MAPPA Team on progress, including where actions are not completed. The SCR Panel may sign off the Action Plan when it is completed and review how practice has improved. A brief report on the final completion of the Action Plan should be sent to the National MAPPA Team within 12 months of the Action Plan being agreed. The SMB Chair is responsible for the dissemination of any learning across their area. The National MAPPA Team will present learning to the MAPPA Responsible Authority National Steering Group annually.
