Overview
A consultation on a proposed process for the review of homicides by individuals with recent contact with mental health services.
Why your views matter
In 2015, the Minister for Sport, Health Improvement and Mental Health, asked the Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland to review how homicides, by people who are users of mental health or learning disability services, are investigated.
A final report was submitted by the Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland in November 2016. The report proposes building on the existing systems of review of investigations undertaken by both Healthcare Improvement Scotland and the Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland.
The consultation seeks views on that proposal.
What happens next
We will consider all responses to this consultation and publish a report in Summer 2017.
