This is a briefing from Inclusion London to alert Deaf and Disabled People’s Organisations in London to an important consultation being undertaken by the Law Commission.

The Law Commission is undertaking a consultation on its proposals for reform of the law relating to adult social care. The Commission believes that the legislative framework for adult social care is ‘inadequate, often incomprehensible and outdated’ and says that the purpose of its proposals is to establish ‘a simple, consistent, transparent and modern framework for adult social care law’.
