Development Group Report 2025 04-02
Since 2019, the Board asked to receive and minute these at their monthly meetings, rather than post each month here and on Central. They were stopped in 2025 as the Operations Team took on this task. The last 3 reports to the Board were not minuted or on the Board agenda, but have been recorded here for completeness.
February and March 2025
Activity on Development Group since the report for the Board’s December 2024 meeting.
Task 139: Abandoned Group Procedure - this was amended after poll and discussion. The change makes more sense for the implementation of the procedure when part of the moderation team has been missing for more than one year. Further review was noted as being desirable at the time of this discussion, so it was left pending on the task list. The Board subsequently decided to delegate responsibility of final approval of this procedure to the Ombudsman, so we are now looking at this again, along with the Ombudsman Remit, as Task 142. Discussion is ongoing at the time of writing.
Knives - Edward asked for comments on an auto warning for requests or offers of knives. It was agreed by discussion that this would be useful.

April 2025
This is the Group's last report. Future updates will be reported by the Operations Team.
Task 140 - Continuing review of Abandoned Groups Procedure: After lengthy discussion, it was decided that as the Board were happy to delegate responsibility for the actions needed for this procedure to the Mentor Team, this procedure can be scrapped. The wording for the changes in the Mentor Team Remit and Ombudsman Remit will be decided by the Board.
This task is now complete.
We have just 3 outstanding tasks on our list. They are awaiting other decisions/work from elsewhere.
