The Paterson Independent Inquiry reported on 4 February. Departmental Ministers committed in Parliament to produce a formal Government response.

In April 2020, Ministers took the decision to pause this work as a result of the COVID-19 emergency which was announced via a Written Ministerial Statement (HCWS208) made to Parliament.

This work has now recommenced, and the Department is planning to publish a formal Government response in due course.
