Our approach

The Office of the Independent Implementation Supervisor (OIIS) uses several approaches to monitor and report on the progress of implementation of DFSV and criminal justice sector reforms.

These approaches examine progress of individual recommendations due for completion, and looking at implementation through a system-wide lens to examine collective progress and achievements more broadly.

There are three elements to the OIIS approach. The first is monitoring the progress of individual recommendations. This includes looking at the progress of significant milestones for relevant in-progress recommendations, the progress of all recommendations due to be completed, and the adequacy of implementation for relevant completed recommendations. The second element is looking at the progress of implementation across the system. This includes the progress of implementation by key themeatic areas and the broader findings and conclusions across the system. The third element looks at the deep dive discussions, which look into individual recommendations to highlight examples of best practice and innovation.


In each reporting period, the Independent Implementation Supervisor (IIS) assesses the progress of recommendations due to be completed in full, as well as interim milestones that are considered 'significant', meaning they are foundational to the implementation of the reform program or to creating tangible changes on the ground.

Individual recommendations due to be completed in full are reported as:

The progress measure is used to assess the extent of implementation of the Government Response to each recommendation. It indicates whether the implementation of a recommendation is not scheduled or not yet commenced, starting, in progress, near completion, complete, on hold or delayed. The fulfilment measure is used to assess the implementation of recommendations deemed completed by the Government. Fulfilment indicates whether the work has achieved completion of all components of the Government Response; with ‘closed’ meaning no further monitoring is required by the IIS, and ‘not yet closed’ indicating continued monitoring is required by the IIS. Finally, Adequacy is assessed for selected recommendations to examine whether implementation of the Government Response has been sufficient and sustainable.

The IIS also monitors progress achieved across the system. This involves examining implementation through different lenses to understand, at a high level, where progress or delays have been observed across the system and identify areas of collective impact.

Several common themes emerged across progress reports, which provide insight into improving implementation. These form the '4Cs of implementation' and are often discussed when considering the concept of trust.
