Cases that are 'monitored' cases are reviewed fortnightly to ensure case tasks are completed, the need for the case to remain on the Monitored List, to prioritise the work and reallocate the case as necessary. Where there are concerns for the safety and wellbeing of a child aged five years or younger the case must not be place on the Monitored List.
