Detailed findings relating to the treatment and conditions of detainees are published in the inspection or annual reports of each NPM member. 5. The NPM’s twice-yearly business meetings are its main forum for members to share findings, best practice, experiences and lessons from monitoring different types of detention and different jurisdictions. The NPM strategic plan is agreed and monitored at these meetings and other decisions which require the input of all members are made. This year, business meetings were held in September 2016 in Cardiff and March 2017 in London. Deprivation of liberty legal safeguards apply only to England and Wales as part of the Mental Capacity Act 2015 but organisations in Scotland and Northern Ireland visit and inspect health and social care facilities where people may be deprived of their liberty. 11
