Since its first publication in 1996, the area of community care law has continued to develop in a piecemeal fashion. Lawyers, advisers, local authorities and charities need a text to guide them through the resulting hotchpotch of complex and often overlapping legislative and case-law decisions. This title provides that guidance.
