SOCIAL CARE, ENGLAND

These Regulations make provision under the Care Act 2014 (“the Act”) for the limitations on the local authority powers to make a charge for meeting needs under section 14 of the Act (Part 2) and in relation to financial assessments for the purposes of section 17 of the Act (Parts 3 to 5 and Schedules 1 and 2). The duty to carry out a financial assessment under section 17 of the Act applies where the local authority thinks that if it were to meet an adult’s needs for care and support, or a carer’s needs for support, it would charge the adult or carer under section 14(1) of the Act.
