The Adult Protection Analysis Project has three clearly stated aims (1) To establish the current situation regarding adult protection referrals in England; (2) Develop national reporting requirements for adult protection; and (3) To contribute to the development of performance indicators for adult protection.

The first aim of the project was been completed by requesting data on adult protection referrals from all local authorities in England.  The second and third aims of the project are being completed by in depth work with eight pilot authorities:  Brent, Redbridge, Essex, Hertfordshire, Dorset, Kent, Liverpool, and Hull and East Riding

In June 2005, these local authorities will begin piloting the new national reporting requirements for adult protection and following this, the reporting requirements will be rolled out nationally.

The Dataset Project is a two year funded programme, with year one just been completed. The report is in two parts, the first being an outline report of the work concluded in year one and the second being information on current work activities.
