Abstract

Recent instruction from the Department of Health requires the institution of an independent inquiry into all cases of homicide committed by those who have been in contact with the psychiatric services. The background to this instruction is explored briefly within the context of more general concerns about violence and homicide, and the advantages and disadvantages of such inquiries are discussed.
