Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, when he expects the Care Act 2014 Part 1 regulations to be laid before the House.
This question was answered on 2nd July 2014
Subject to the Parliamentary timetable, we intend to lay the final regulations in October 2014 and publish the statutory guidance at the same time. We are committed to setting out the detail of secondary legislation and statutory guidance six months in advance of when most of Part 1 of the Care Act comes into force (April 2015), in order to give local authorities and their partners as much time as possible to plan for implementation.
