I’d second Madi’s comments – due to the Goddard Inquiry, worth retaining for the time being until the ‘hold’ on social care records is lifted!

 

 

 

Hi Leanne

I have previously categorised these under Adult Safeguarding Records – as they form part of the investigation – but I will now go and ask some further questions about this.

 

If you are talking about actual MAPPA docs as issued by the MAPP (minutes, etc).  I have no information on those.. and am glad you have raised it so I can go and find out!

 

For case files, the retention period we used at Sutton is last contact with client or family + 10 years, i.e. so even if the client was deceased and there was on-going contact with family, the records would still be retained.  We did this on the basis that not all safeguarding issues were resolved by the death of a client.  The 10 year period was recommended to us by Kent County Council. 

 

However, in the light of the Goddard Inquiry, we are now likely to cease destruction of these records for the time being anyway.

 

I hope that helps - let us know if you find out anything substantive we can all use.

 

Kind regards

Madi

 

 

 

Hello All

 

I have received a query regarding  adult social care records for a  MAPPA case the adult is recently deceased, I can find very little and  conflicting retention on such cases for Local Authorities, if anyone has any knowledge of these I would be very interested to see how long your retention is for them.

 

Kindest Regards

 

Leanne
