Law Commission consultation on adult social care

February 24th, 2010 by Malcolm Payne


Well this is going to ruin my history of social work lectures. The Law Commission has published a consultation paper on reforming the law on adult social care (which goes back at least to the National Assistance Act 1948 and earlier for some cl;ient groups and is covered by loads of legislation and guidance. We need this. Comment later.

Look at the paper: http://www.lawcom.gov.uk/docs/cp192.pdf
