+            ### User Story
+
+            As a… engineer on the Analytical Platform
+            I need/want/expect to… keep the JML report mechanism up to date
+            So that… security / best practice etc
+
+            ### Definition of Done
+            - [ ] Merge any open dependabot Pull Requests in the JML report [repository](https://github.com/ministryofjustice/analytical-platform-jml-report).
+            - [ ] Create new [release](https://github.com/ministryofjustice/analytical-platform-jml-report/releases).
+            - [ ] Update the [lambda function](https://github.com/ministryofjustice/analytical-platform/blob/main/terraform/aws/analytical-platform-data-production/joiners-movers-leavers/lambda-functions.tf) to consume the new release
