PFD Response Tracker
Prevention of Future DeathsHow statuses are calculated — 56-day deadline, Judiciary.UK data
Recipients have 56 days to respond under Regulation 28. We use the deadline stated in the report where available, otherwise we calculate it from the report date.
We rely on Judiciary.UK for response data, so if a response has been provided but not yet published there, it may show incorrectly here.
"No identified response", "Pending", and "Historic" only count reports where no response at all has been identified as published on Judiciary.UK.
If at least one response has been published for a report, it counts as "Responded" — even if not every listed addressee has a separate published response.
This is because addressee data from Judiciary.UK can be unreliable: address fragments, job titles, and redacted names are sometimes parsed as separate addressees, and a single response PDF may cover multiple parties.
"Historic with no identified response" means we have not been able to identify a published response, but the report is more than two years old.
We do not mark these as overdue or pending because older reports may well have received a response that was simply never made public.
This is a neutral status indicating absence of an identified published record, not confirmed non-compliance.
