Consultation description

Domestic Homicide Reviews are intended to seek out and share opportunities for learning from the tragic circumstances where an individual (aged 16 and over) has been killed as a result of domestic violence and abuse.   The reviews will identify what worked well and inform the development of practice to improve services, ultimately with a view to preventing domestic violence and abuse and domestic homicide happening in the future. 

We are keen to hear your views and receive information which will help us in shaping and finalising the model for Domestic Homicide Reviews in Northern Ireland.
