Welsh Govt. consultations re phase 3 of of implementation of the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales)
The Welsh Government has published three consultations relating to Phase 3 of implementation of the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Act 2016.
The Act establishes a new system of regulation and inspection of social care that upholds the rights of Welsh citizens to dignified, safe and appropriate care and support.
We are consulting on improvements to the regulation of fostering services, adult placement services and, for the first time, of advocacy services in respect of children’s statutory advocacy.
For further details please see the webpages for each consultation:
The Minister for Children, Older People and Social Care has issued a written statement which is available at:
