The consultation document sets out a summary of the policies that the regulations and guidance relate to and the questions we would welcome views and evidence on. It should be read alongside the draft regulations and guidance.
The guidance is intended to provide local authorities with the information they need about how they should meet the legal obligations under the Act and the regulations, and will be used by local authority officers to plan care and support. The guidance will also be used by people using care and support, their families, the voluntary sector and providers of care and support to help them understand the new system.
