The Department is working with local authorities and other organisations to identify the data needed to support the delivery of adult social care, and provide insight into adult social care outcomes. We are committed to reducing the burden of data collection on local authorities and adult social care providers, so the benefits of any new data collection will need to be balanced against the potential burden it would create.
