Update to charging arrangements for adult social care services

The Department has published updates to the Fairer Charging Policies for Home Care and other non-residential Social Services guidance, and the Charging for Residential Accommodation Guide (CRAG).

This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government

The revisions to the Fairer Charging guidance, to be applied from 29 September 2012, are primarily to take account of a change to the use of Guaranteed Income Payments paid under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme. Changes to CRAG have also been made to reflect these revisions.
