Consultation - Charging for Homecare and Other Non-Residential Social Services

Changes are planned to introduce more consistency in local council’s charging for homecare and other non-residential social services. A government consultation is seeking views on changes that will apply to those who receive services from their local council and those who enter into a Direct Payments arrangement with their council to purchase services themselves. The consultation seeks comments on draft regulations and guidance to local councils needed to implement a “First Steps Improvement Package” by 4th February 2011.
