martin searle solicitors’ community care law specialist Cate Searle is to address a high-profile conference in London on April 29, 2009. Care for the Elderly - Developments in Local Authority Rights and Responsibilities is organised by CLT Conferences and designed for solicitors and other professionals.
The agenda will examine how local authorities are beginning to respond to the transformation and personalisation agenda. Speakers will cover issues including funding responsibilities between health and social services and how the Resource Allocation System, introduced as part of the Transforming Social Care process, is taking account of social services’ charges.
Cate Searle’s community care law session will explore the discretion local authorities have when it comes to charging for services.
