SOCIAL CARE, WALES

Section 1 of the Social Care Charges (Wales) Measure 2010 (“the Measure”) gives local authorities in Wales a discretionary power to impose a reasonable charge upon the adult recipients of non-residential social care services where those services are provided or secured by a local authority (“service users”). Local authorities are not required to impose a charge for such services, but where a charge is imposed the Measure requires a local authority to comply with the relevant provisions of Regulations made by the Welsh Ministers under it (and also under any Regulations made under section 16 of the Community Care (Delayed Discharges etc) Act 2003).
