At its meeting on 13 March 2007 the Scottish Social Services Council
(SSSC) agreed that the delivery of the Mental Health Social Work Award
(MHSWA) be extended to 2009 to enable a new programme to be
developed. To satisfy the rules under which programmes continue to be
approved it is required that current programmes undergo a formal review
during 2007/2008. The review will consider particular issues of consistency
between the existing programmes.
