Download or read book Draft Care and Support Bill written by Great Britain: Parliament: Joint Committee on the Draft Care and Support Bill and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-03-19 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government has not fully thought through the implications of its social care reforms and may leave local authorities open to a deluge of disputes and legal challenges. MPs and Peers warn that without greater integration with health and housing, and a focus on prevention and early intervention, the care and support system will be unsustainable. The Committee also calls for a nationwide campaign to educate people about the need to pay for their own care, saying that adult care and support are poorly understood. Key recommendations include: a new power to mandate joint budgets and commissioning across health, care and housing, such as support for the frail elderly, making it simpler for NHS and local Councils to pool budgets; fast-tracking of care and support assessments for terminally-ill people; new legal rights for young carers to protect them from inappropriate caring responsibilities and ensure they get the support they need; an obligation on the Secretary of State to take into account the draft Bill's well-being principle when designing and setting a national eligibility threshold; independent resolution of disputes over decisions about care and support - and costs that count towards the cap - through a Care and Support Tribunal. In addition, the Committee makes a number of recommendations to improve health research and the education and training of NHS workers. The Committee also warns that restricting support and care to those with the highest levels of need will simply shunt costs into acute NHS care and undermines interventions to prevent and postpone the need for formal care and support.

Download or read book Draft Care and Support Bill written by Great Britain: Department of Health and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-07-11 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is published alongside the Government white paper "Caring for our future: reforming care and support" (Cm. 8378, ISBN 9780101837828). The draft Bill takes forward the recommendations of the Law Commission report on adult social care (Law Com. 326, HC 941, session 2010-12, ISBN 9780102971682) which concluded that existing care and support legislation was outdated and confusing, making it difficult for people who need care and support, and carers, to know what they are entitled to and for local authorities to understand their responsibilities. The Bill will: modernise and consolidate the law, clarify entitlements; support broader needs of local communities; simplify the care and support system and processes. Key provisions include: statutory principles which embed the promotion of individual well-being; clear legal entitlements; everyone, including carers, should have a personal budget as part of their care and support plan; duties to ensure care and support continues when a person moves to a different local authority area; a new statutory framework for adult safeguarding. Others sections cover the establishment of Health Education England and the Health Research Authority, and allow for the abolition (subject to consultation) of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority and Human Tissue Authority.

Download or read book Proposed National Assembly for Wales Legislative Competence Housing and Local Government Order 2010 relating to sustainable housing written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Welsh Affairs Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-02-03 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of this proposed LCO would be to devolve wide-ranging legislative competence for social housing policy to the National Assembly for Wales. The terms of the proposed Order include the provision of social housing, provision by local authorities of caravan sites for use by gypsies and travellers, measures to tackle homelessness, and council tax payable in respect of dwellings that are not the main residence of an individual. The current proposal is a revision of an earlier, much narrower, affordable housing LCO laid before Parliament in 2008, which was criticised because the terms of the LCO went much wider than the policy purposes described to us by the Minister in her evidence. The Committee believes that there is indeed a demand in Wales for comprehensive social housing legislation for Wales, to include the regulation of social housing providers and reform of tenure law. It concludes that the current Order is a logical extension of the current devolution settlement and, with minor technical changes outlined in this Report, is content that it should proceed. The Committee reiterates its continuing concerns about the naming of LCOs. There is now a number of draft or proposed Orders with similar titles. The recommendation is that LCOs should be given a simple title which conveys the actual subject of the Order to the general reader.
