Section 88: Right of entry

210.This section allows persons authorised by the CSCI to enter premises which are used or are proposed to be used in the provision of an English local authority social service, or where the CSCI believes such use has or will be likely to take place (subsection (2)). Individuals authorised by the CSCI will not have the right, by virtue of this section, to enter private homes where social services are being provided. The powers given to CSCI inspectors by this section largely mirror those given to the CHAI inspectors by section 66.
