This article, based on a review of the literature both from Britain and North America and findings from the Approved Premises pathfinder, will explore the key issues in establishing a model regime for Approved Premises. It will suggest that face-to-face work with residents is an essential component for Approved Premises, and that there is a danger of this vital work being pushed into a secondary function by the need for surveillance and monitoring. The article will argue that working in a rehabilitative manner with residents assists in their risk management.

Key Words: approved premises • hostels • motivational work • pro-social modelling • risk
