It's important to note that, to ensure best practice, agencies should use completely independent chairs. By this, we mean someone from a different organisation/agency that is not involved with the case. Greater clarity in the statutory guidance would be beneficial in this regard, to ensure that all areas are using the same definition of independent. By doing this, victims are more likely to feel that the process is fair. Find out more about the ASB case Review from a practitioner's perspective here 👉 https://buff.ly/3V81WbY #team #charity #asb
