Part 4: The Health Services Safety Investigations Body Reports Section 114: Interim reports
The HSSIB may publish an "interim report" during an investigation. The interim report may contain findings of fact and an analysis of the investigation’s findings together with any recommendations as to the action to be taken by any person that the HSSIB considers is appropriate. If the investigation relates to an incident that did not occur during the provision of NHS services, for example, in an independent hospital, the report may also set out the HSSIB’s conclusions with regard to section 110(3). The aim is to address urgent risks to the safety of patients quickly, or issues that are known early in an investigation, so that swift action can be taken and lessons learned across health care systems.
	Interim reports are subject to the same conditions as final reports, as set out in section 113(3) to (7).
