SOCIAL CARE, WALES

Section 14(1) of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 (“the Act”) requires local authorities and Local Health Boards (referred to in the Regulations as “responsible bodies”) to jointly assess the matters specified in section 14(1)(a) to (f) of the Act. These matters include the extent to which there are people in the local authority’s area who need care and support and the extent to which there are carers in the area who need support. These Regulations make provision for the carrying out of these assessments (referred to in the regulations as “population assessments”).
