The welfare system of the United Kingdom has been undergoing a radical overhaul in the past decade. The structure of social security, housing provision, the care of the elderly, mentally disordered and physically handicapped, and the welfare system for children are all being rethought. Major reports and reviews, new legislative structures and significant judicial decisions make this an appropriate time for leading academics on the subject to ask and answer searching questions in relation to these changes.
