Adult Services Includes information for: Adult health and Social Care

The Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 removed the requirement for best value authorities to compile a Best Value Performance Plan and 2007-08 is the final year in which BVPIs are collected. The new National Indicator set of 198 indicators has now replaced BVPIs and other indicator sets as part of the new Performance framework for local authorities and local authority partnerships.
