Cabinet considered a report of the Director of Adults’ Health and Care regarding temporary changes to the County Council’s duties under the Care Act 2014.
The report was introduced including an overview of the work underway within Adults Services and the options within the legislation to enact the Care Act easements. The process of doing so was outlined and it was confirmed that this was a temporary position and would be used as a last resort and not a blanket approach. It was furthermore clarified that the recommendations were being made pro-actively and there was no current expectation of the delegated authority being required.
